Ongoing efforts in nuclear fusion research promise a cheap, clean, and safe energy source for future generations. In this blog post, we’re looking at how fusion power works, its advantages, and how fusion research is bringing us closer to commercial fusion reactors....
The features and characteristics of solids are largely dependent on their chemical structure at the surface. Surface analysis is used to determine the chemical structure of the surface atomic layer (a shallow and thin area of the surface). Surface analysis instruments...
Differential Electrochemical Mass Spectrometry (DEMS) is an analytical method that is a combination of mass spectrometry and electrochemical half-cell experimentation. It is used in continuous faradaic reactions to identify products or intermediates and for...
Water pollution occurs when harmful substances such as microorganisms or chemicals contaminate a body of water. Pollution can come from many sources, with agriculture (through the excessive use of pesticides and fertilizers) and water companies (through untreated...
The characterization of catalysts involves a knowledge of the physical properties of the catalyst as well as an understanding of structure-reactivity or selectivity relationships during the catalytic process. This is achieved by combining spectroscopic...
