Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date February 2009 Stereoscopic spectroscopy is a type of imaging spectroscopy that can extract a few spectral parameters over a complete image plane simultaneously. A stereoscopic spectrograph is similar to a normal spectrograph except that A it has no slit, and B multiple spectral order s often including the non dispersion dispersed zero order are collected simultaneously. The individual images are blurred by the spectral information present in the original data. The images are recombined using stereoscopy stereoscopic algorithm s similar to those used to find ground feature altitudes from parallax in aerial photography . Stereoscopic spectroscopy is a special case of the more general field of tomographic spectroscopy . Both types of imaging use an analogy between the math x,y, lambda math data space of imaging spectrographs and the conventional math x,y,z math 3 space of the physical world. Each spectral order in the instrument produces an image plane analogous to the view from a camera with a particular look angle through the math x,y, lambda math data space, and recombining the views allows recovery of some aspects of the spectrum at every location in the image.

one source date December 2010 Stark spectroscopy sometimes known as electroabsorption emission spectroscopy is a form of spectroscopy based on the Stark effect . In brief, this technique makes use of the Stark effect or electrochromism either to reveal information about the physiochemical or physical properties of a sample using a well characterized electric field or to reveal information about an electric field using a reference sample with a well characterized Stark effect. The use of the term Stark effect differs between the disciplines of chemistry and physics. Physicists tend to use the more classical definition of the term see Stark effect , while chemists usually use the term to refer to what is technically electrochromism . ref Liptay, W. Berichte der Bunsengesellschaft f r physikalische Chemie . 1974 , 80, 207 217. Liptay, W. Excited States . 129 159. ref In the former case, the applied electric field splits the atomic energy levels and is the electric field analog of the Zeeman effect . However, in the latter case, the applied electric field changes the molar absorption coefficient of the sample, which can be measured using traditional absorption or emission spectroscopic methods. This effect is known as electrochromism. See also Stark effect Plasma diagnostics References references DEFAULTSORT Stark Spectroscopy Category Spectroscopy ... more details
Saturated spectroscopy is the method by which the exact energy of the hyperfine transitions within an atom can be found. When a monochromatic light is shone through an atom, the Absorption cross section is broadened due to Doppler broadening . Saturated spectroscopy allows the doppler broadened peak to be resolved so that the exact transitions can be found. More than a decade after the first demonstration of hole burning or Lamb dip, a result of saturated absorption process inside HeNe laser cavity at 1.1micron in 1962, the greater majority of SA spectroscopy research was carried out with gas lasers and molecules in the mid infrared. But due to the facts that SA requires high laser intensity and the gas molecules usually have widely spread strong absorption spectra only in the Mid IR, and the slow development of compact, widely tunable Mid IR lasers, the SA technique has not been widely used for molecular chemical analysis besides precision metrology which only been limited to the isolated wavelengths of HeNe and CO sub 2 sub lasers and limited number of molecules.

unreferenced date December 2010 Electron spectroscopy is an analytical technique to study the electronic structure and its dynamics in atom s and molecule s. In general an excitation source such as x ray s, electron s or synchrotron radiation will eject an electron from an inner shell atomic orbital orbital of an atom. Detecting photoelectron s that are ejected by x rays is called x ray photoelectron spectroscopy XPS or electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis ESCA . Detecting electrons that are ejected from higher orbitals to conserve energy during electron transitions is called Auger electron spectroscopy AES . Experimental applications include high resolution measurements on the intensity and angular distributions of emitted electrons as well as on the total and partial ion yields. Ejected electrons can escape only from a depth of approximately 3 nanometers or less, making electron spectroscopy most useful to study surfaces of solid materials. Depth profiling is accomplished by combining an electron spectroscopy with a sputtering source that removes surface layers. Synchrotron radiation research work has been carried out at the MAX Laboratory in Lund, Sweden, Elettra Storage Ring in Trieste, Italy, and at ALS in Berkeley, CA.

Photoacoustic spectroscopy is the measurement of the effect of absorbed electromagnetic energy particularly of light on matter by means of acoustics acoustic detection. The discovery of the photoacoustic effect dates to 1880 when Alexander Graham Bell showed that thin discs emitted sound when exposed to a Light beam beam of sunlight that was rapidly interrupted with a rotating slotted disk. The Absorption electromagnetic radiation absorbed energy from the light is transformed into kinetic energy of the sample by energy exchange processes. This results in local heat ing and thus a pressure wave or sound. Later Bell showed that materials exposed to the non visible portions of the solar spectrum i.e., the infrared and the ultraviolet can also produce sounds. A photoacoustic spectrum of a sample can be recorded by measuring the sound at different wavelength s. This spectrum can be used to identify the absorbing components of the sample. The photoacoustic effect can be used to study solid s, liquid s and gas es. ref David W.

Polarization spectroscopy comprises a set of spectroscopic techniques based on polarization properties of light not necessarily visible one Ultraviolet UV , X ray , infrared , or in any other frequency range of the electromagnetic radiation . By analyzing the polarization properties of light, decisions can be made about the media that emitted the light or the media the light passes scatters through . Alternatively, a source of polarized light may be used to probe a media in this case, the changes in the light polarization comparing to the incidental one allow to infer the media properties. In general, any kind of anisotropy in the media results in some sort of light polarization. Such an anisotropy can be either inherent to the media e.g., in the case of a crystal substance , or imposed externally e.g., in the presence of magnetic field in plasma physics plasma .

Photothermal spectroscopy is a group of high sensitivity spectroscopy techniques used to measure optical absorption and thermal characteristics of a sample. The basis of photothermal spectroscopy is the change in thermal state of the sample resulting from the absorption of radiation. Light absorbed and not lost by emission results in heating. The heat raises temperature thereby influencing the thermodynamic properties of the sample or of a suitable material adjacent to it. Measurement of the temperature, pressure, or density changes that occur due to optical absorption are ultimately the basis for the photothermal spectroscopic measurements.

Hadron spectroscopy is the subfield of particle physics that studies the masses and decays of hadrons . Hadron spectroscopy is also an important part of the new nuclear physics. The properties of hadrons are a consequence of a theory called quantum chromodynamics QCD . QCD predicts that quark s and antiquarks bind into particles called meson s. Another type of hadron is called a baryon , that is made of three quarks. There is good experimental evidence for both mesons and baryons. Potentially QCD also has bound states of just gluon s called glueballs . One of the goals of the field of hadronic spectroscopy is to find experimental evidence for exotic meson s, tetraquark s, molecules of hadrons, and glueballs . An important part of the field of hadronic spectroscopy are the attempts to solve QCD. The properties of hadrons require the solution of QCD in the strong coupling regime, where perturbative techniques based on Feynman diagrams do not work.
