Sensing strain-induced symmetry breaking by reflectance anisotropy spectroscopy [PDF]
Intentional breaking of the lattice symmetry in solids is a key concept to alter the properties of materials by modifying their electronic band structure. However, the correlation of strain-induced effects and breaking of the lattice symmetry is often indirect, resorting to vibrational spectroscopic techniques, such as Raman scattering.

Reflectance anisotropy spectroscopy of magnetite (110) surfaces [PDF]
Reflectance anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS) has been used to measure the optical anisotropies of bulk and thin-film Fe3O4(110) surfaces. The spectra indicate that small shifts in energy of the optical transitions, associated with anisotropic strain or electric field gradients caused by the (110) surface termination or a native oxide layer, are ...

Two Methods of Near Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy for Determining the Digestibility and Energy Value of Feeds [PDF]
Two groups of rations with known in vivo digestibility and energy values were used in this study. These rations were composed of Italian ryegrass only (lRO. n = 45), and combination of Italian ryegrass and concentrates (lRC, n = 58).

A research product for tropospheric NO2 columns from Geostationary Environment Monitoring Spectrometer based on Peking University OMI NO2 algorithm [PDF]
Tropospheric vertical column densities (VCDs) of nitrogen dioxide (NO2) retrieved from sun-synchronous satellite instruments have provided abundant NO2 data for environmental studies, but such data are limited by retrieval uncertainties and insufficient ...

Reflectance anisotropy spectroscopy of strain-engineered GaAsBi alloys [PDF]
In this paper, we present results obtained by an optical technique, namely, reflectance anisotropy spectroscopy (RAS), applied to a series of GaAs1−xBix samples grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) under different strain conditions with the increasing concentration of Bi, up to the higher value of about 7%.

Rapid measurement of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon contamination in soils by visible and near-infrared spectroscopy [PDF]
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are widely distributed organic pollutants. At petroleum contaminated sites, PAHs are often the key risk drivers because of their carcinogenicity. Assessing the risk of PAH at contaminated sites by conventional soil

Near infrared reflectance spectroscopy compared with soil clay and organic matter content for estimating within-field variation in N uptake in cereals [PDF]
Adjusting fertiliser applications to within-field variations in nitrogen (N) mineralisation during the growing season can increase yields, improve crop quality, reduce costs and decrease nutrient losses to the environment. Predicting such variations at a
