Our November Presentation: Anasys Instruments recently introduced a new instrument that performs chemical analysis on the microscopic scale. The instrument uses infrared spectroscopy, which generates a signal that acts as a fingerprint to identify the material being studied. It rapidly acquires infrared spectra on a length scale 10-1000X smaller than conventional infrared instruments, revealing details that were invisible to previous infrared microscopes. With this capability, researchers can visualize the chemical makeup of complex materials. This instrument is leading to exciting applications in areas that will touch our lives in many ways--new materials for autos, consumer electronics, food, biomedical research, health care and beauty products.
