Join our workshop
Description
Pittcon 2022 will include a session devoted to NIR spectroscopy, a technique rapidly advancing in practical applications. Nowadays, miniaturization brings it to our home with affordable sensors meant for daily use. Yet, nuances of NIR spectroscopy that set it apart from IR spectroscopy are often misinterpreted. This course presents the fundamental characteristics of NIR spectroscopy and reasons behind its overwhelming application potential. Recent progress in methods and instrumentation decisively changed the application potential and our understanding of NIR spectra. These factors combined together bring a new perspective on NIR spectroscopy, which will be thoroughly discussed during this course. This course is accessible and prepared with care for participants wanting to deepen their understanding of vibrational spectroscopy. Common misconceptions about NIR spectroscopy will be cleared throughout this course and experienced professionals will equally benefit from participating.
