The objective of the research in the atomic and molecular laser spectroscopy laboratory is to gain knowledge about the basic properties of ions and neutral atoms and molecules, with a particular ...

Over the past few years, it has become possible to confine and guide light in micrometre-scale, hollow-core waveguides based on photonic-crystal structures, such as photonic-crystal fibre (HC-PCF) 6, ...

For more than thirty years, heavy metals have been considered potential toxic environmental contaminants. It is a fact that most of today’s environmental challenges revolve around the determination of ...

Many different methods and techniques can be used to determine the elemental composition of a molecule in a laboratory. In some cases, even the specific isotopes of the elements present in the ...

Transitions between different electronic energy levels in elements occur at unique energies and intensities, giving each element a distinctive emission spectrum. When the energy of an incident photon ...
