Researchers discover new chemical sensing technique
Technique allows sharper detail, and more information, with near infrared light
Researchers have reported a new technique to determine the chemical composition of materials using near-infrared light. The work could have a number of potential applications, including improving downhole drilling analysis in the oil and gas industry and broadening the spectrum of solar light that can be harvested and converted to electricity.
Although the paper uses hydrocarbon composition analysis as an example of how the technique could be deployed, Shih said it can be applied to any molecular species.
