TECHNOLOGY
The measurement principle of EMILIE is based on the photothermal heating of the sample, causing a measurable frequency detuning of the EMILIE nanomechanical sampling and sensing chip.
FTIR SPECTROMETER INTEGRATION
Our EMILIE nanomechanical infrared analyser is compatible with FTIR spectrometry instrumentation.
QCL-BASED SPECTROMETER INTEGRATION
Our EMILIE nanomechanical infrared analyser is compatible with QCL-based spectrometers for increased sensitivity down to a few picograms.
BROAD SPECTRAL RANGE
EMILIE allows for the detection of near-IR to far-IR (THz) radiation with high sensitivity.
At Invisible-Light Labs, we strive to make a positive impact on the world we live in by enabling groundbreaking scientific discoveries with our highly sensitive IR sensors.
APPLICATIONS
The IR to THz region of the electromagnetic spectrum hosts a wealth of intriguing interactions between radiation and matter.
