Mass Spectrometry & Spectroscopy 19 New Upgrade for Photoluminescence Spectrometers
A new upgrade for its photoluminescence spectrometers has been announced by Edinburgh Instruments. Designed and manufactured at their global headquarters in Scotland, the MicroPL upgrade enables the study of spectral or time-resolved photoluminescence of samples in the microscopic scale by converting an Edinburgh Instruments photoluminescence (PL) spectrometer into a combined spectrometer and microscope system. A wide range of microscope confi gurations, source coupling and detector options are available enabling both steady state and fl uorescence lifetime microscopy, as well as automated maps.
Suitable for any type of photoluminescence experiment, this customisable instrument can be tailored to any application and upgradable in the future. A FLIM add on enables accessible and user-friendly fl uorescence lifetime mapping. The adaptable Plug & Play allows easy access between MicroPL and FLS1000 Photoluminescence Spectrometer or FS5 Spectrofl uorometer standard sample holders. All-in-one software includes data acquisition, analysis and presentation.
Roger Fenske, CEO, said: “We are delighted to expand the functionality of ou photoluminescence spectrometers. Not only is our new PL microscope option fully confi gurable, it can also be upgraded with additional capability in the future. This ensures that our products keep evolving as new research trends emerge.“

Quantum Cascade Laser Module with a Tunable Frequency Range from 0.42 to 2 THz
Hamamatsu’s breakthrough was achieved by analysing the principle governing the generation of terahertz waves, which enhance the Quantum Cascade Laser’s (QCL) output power and the confi guration of the highly effi cient external cavity, while using our advanced optical design technology.
This research results in generating narrow-band terahertz waves all while switching the frequency of just one QCL module. This technology will help in polymer material identifi cation as well as boost accuracy in quality evaluation for non-destructive inspection of drugs, foods, and semiconductors containing components that absorb terahertz waves. The QCL module using this technology will also prove to be a key innovative device for achieving future ultra-high-speed wireless communication.
The Optica Publishing Group in the electronic version of the scientifi c journal ‘Photonics Research’ published these research results on the 22 February 2022. Part of this research was commissioned by the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications, as a ‘Strategic Information and Communications R&D Promotion Program (SCOPE)’ (No. JP195006001).

57454pr@reply-direct.com ADVERTORIAL Overcoming the Challenges of Analytical Data Digitalisation
While digital transformation of many types of scientifi c data is a challenge, analytical data brings its own, particular complexities. Moving your data from paper printouts to a computer screen is not digitalisation. The data itself has not changed; it has simply been encoded in a digital format. Digitalisation is defi ned by data that can be leveraged by digital information technology to help transform R&D.
The main diffi culties of analytical data digitalisation are: analytical data is diverse -multiple techniques are often used in combination to provide answers; it is disparate -each technique and instrument vendor has its own proprietary format; and it’s pervasive in R&D workfl ows - how to tackle them all?
Many organisations have invested in data standardisation initiatives to tackle the first two problems. Unfortunately, while standard data ontologies and a standard data output for all analytical hardware is the ideal scenario, such initiatives have yet to yield a complete and accepted standard. That some of these initiatives are decades-old is also a clear indicator that this is not a trivial task and a goal unlikely to be achieved in the near future. The ubiquity of analytical data adds to the challenge because it is required by different users for different purposes at various stages of research, development, and manufacturing.
For more than 25 years ACD/Labs has been helping R&D organisations store, manage, and digitalise analytical data. The Spectrus platform enables the normalisation of all major analytical data types and formats. ACD/Labs makes your data easier for researchers to fi nd and extract answers from, and available for new insights. The company have consulted on and helped clients deploy successful digitalisation of analytical workfl ows. The right time is now, and ACD/Labs will help you every step of the way.
