Atomic Spectroscopy Achieved with Optics on a Chip
SANTA CRUZ, Calif., June 1, 2007 -- Atomic spectroscopy has been performed with integrated optics on a chip for the first time by guiding a beam of light through a rubidium vapor cell integrated into a semiconductor chip. Atomic spectroscopy is a widely used technique with diverse applications in astronomy and astrophysics, biomedicine and forensics, among other areas. Based on the interactions of light and matter, spectroscopy is often used to identify substances by the wavelengths of light they absorb or emit.Atomic...
