Interdepartmental Spectroscopy Network
The Interdepartmental Spectroscopy Network brings together numerous researchers and a wide range of instruments from three different departments in the Science Area (Materials Science, Environmental and Earth Sciences and Biotechnology and Biosciences). The Interdepartmental Spectroscopy Network manages all the equipment available to both internal and external users in a coordinated manner. The skills developed over the years enable measurements on any type of material (powders, solids, liquids, biological materials, etc.) even under controlled conditions of temperature and atmosphere, and the design of new experimental procedures for in situ and in operando characterisations.
