Each spacecraft carried an infrared (IR) spectrometer designed and built at the College of Chemistry and the Space Sciences Lab at the University of California, Berkeley. The IR instruments on the ...

Long-wave infrared birefringent crystals are essential materials in infrared optical applications in fields such as infrared imaging, laser technology, and optical communications. Due to limitations ...

Let’s look at some pictures in the near-infrared (IR) spectrum that you can’t observe using the naked eye. Using IR, there’s a whole new world to look at! This activity is best performed outside, on a ...
