Spectroscopy
Types of spectroscopy:
(a) Continuous spectroscopy
(b) Absorption spectroscopy
(c) Emission spectroscopy
Emission Process
Electrons ground level
Energy emission
Absorb energy
Equipment
Left: Equipment diagram
Right: Schematic diagram
Applications
Absorption spectrum: used in deducing
Spectrum of planets
Compare the
absorption spectrum
with the elements
emission spectrum,
people can build the
spectrum of planets.
Fluorescence Spectroscopy
Light source, self-emission
Different fluorescence:
(a) different meta-stable
states
(b) different various
vibrational states of the
ground state
Time-resolved fluorescence
spectroscopy
It provides fluorescence intensity decay
in terms of lifetimes
Advantages:
enhance the discrimination among
fluorophores (overlapping emission
spectra )
sensitive to various parameters of the
biological microenvironment
Time-resolved fluorescence
spectroscopy
Time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence
spectroscopy (tr-LIFS)

Mathematical method
Based on the definition of convolution:
( f g )(m) f (n) g (m n)

Mathematical method
For the tr-LIFS system, the impulse response
function IRF (t ) is what would be recorded as
F (t ) I (t ) IRF (t )
Estimation of the intrinsic
fluorescence decay was carried out via
deconvolution of the observed
fluorescence
spectrometer provides
the intensity of a
single spectrum, I()
a spectrum at each
pixel, I (x, y, )
Observation of multiple
activities
Trying to use 5 different kinds of fluorescent
were labeled
