From: Micro-Extinction Spectroscopy (MExS): a versatile optical characterization technique
Technique | Variable of interest | Computation | Example application |
|---|---|---|---|
Transmission | Absorption | \(- \log \left( {\frac{\text{Sample transmittance}}{\text{Direct transmittance}}} \right)\) | 2D materials electronic properties |
Reflectance | Differential reflectance | \(\frac{{\left| {{\text{Sample reflectance}} - {\text{Substrate reflectance}}} \right|}}{\text{Substrate reflectance}}\) | 2D materials substrate interactions |
Darkfield | Scattering | \(\frac{{{\text{Particle scattering}} - {\text{Background scattering}}}}{{{\text{Lamp scattering}} - {\text{Dark scattering}}}}\) | Plasmonic NPs single-particle studies |
