Our annual article in Spectroscopy‘s June Raman supplement for 2024 shows how affordable, reliable Raman instruments can be combined with intuitive AI-driven software to achieve noninvasive process monitoring in bioreactors. Fermentation has long been essential for producing foods like beer, wine, and bread. Modern biotechnology now uses genetically modified microorganisms to […]
Volume phase holographic gratings (VPHGs) manufactured with dichromated gelatin (DCG) have become a staple of astronomical spectrograph design due to their high first order diffraction efficiency, low stray light, and high index modulation, which enables wide spectral bandwidths and angular tuning. At SPIE Astronomical Telescopes + Instrumentation 2024, we gave […]
