Thu, Sep 21, 2023Characterization of SERRS Nanoparticles Using UV-Vis and Raman Spectroscopy
Surface-enhanced resonance Raman scattering (SERRS) is a technique that offers unparalleled sensitivity and specificity in nondestructive spectroscopic detection. It combines surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) and resonance Raman spectroscopy (RRS), two techniques that are individually used...

Mon, Aug 7, 2023What Is the Modulation Transfer Function?
The modulation transfer function, or MTF, is a parameter used to evaluate the performance of a lens. MTF provides a quantitative and standardized way to characterize optical systems, so the metric is used by optical designers and microscopists alike to compare lenses and determine the ideal one for...
