Technical Note: Choosing the Right Optical Fiber for Your Process Spectrometer

Is your process spectrometer giving you the full picture? For engineers working in process control and Process Analytical Technology (PAT), the quality and reliability of real-time data are paramount. While the spectrometer itself is the core of the system, its performance often hinges on a component that can be easily overlooked: the optical fiber. The […]

Webinar: Combi Probes - Solving the "Blind Spot" of Single-Mode Spectroscopy

In complex chemical analysis and biomedical diagnostics, relying on a single spectroscopic technique often results in a "blind spot." While Near-Infrared (NIR) offers speed, it frequently lacks specificity. Raman spectroscopy provides a precise molecular fingerprint but often battles fluorescence interference. Mid-IR offers excellent structural detail but is limited by shallow penetration depths. The Challenge: Spatial […]

The art photonics team is currently fully engaged at the 20. Herbstkolloquium Prozessanalytik, and with two days already behind us, we are thrilled with the productive atmosphere and the depth of the technical exchanges.

The event kicked off with strong momentum, setting the stage for deep discussions on the future of process control. We were particularly inspired by the keynote address from Maik Müller, CEO of our parent company, Nynomic AG. The program has offered fantastic insights into the actual needs of the industry, including interesting use cases presented by Hellma and valuable perspectives from Glatt.

Technology in Action at Booth #11

Beyond the presentations, our booth has been a hub of activity. We are showcasing our comprehensive portfolio of fiber optic probes designed for harsh environments and precise process control, covering the full spectral range from 200nm to 16µm.

Visitors have had the chance to see our FlexiSpec® product family first-hand. We are currently displaying a wide variety of solutions, including:

Scientific Contribution

Our commitment to R&D was also highlighted during the poster session. Our R&D Manager, Alexander Novikov, presented his work on “Fiber Optic Probes for Multi-Modal Spectroscopy in Harsh Environments and Challenging Analytical Tasks,” sparking excellent discussions on how to solve complex analytical problems.

Join Us for the Final Day

We have one day left! If you are attending the 20. Herbstkolloquium Prozessanalytik and haven't stopped by yet, we invite you to visit Booth #11 on the third day.

Our CEO Dr. Stefanie Foerster, Alexander Novikov, and our Sales Manager Peter Tänzer are looking forward to meeting you to discuss how our probes can support your process control requirements.

In complex chemical analysis and biomedical diagnostics, relying on a single spectroscopic technique often results in a "blind spot." While Near-Infrared (NIR) offers speed, it frequently lacks specificity. Raman spectroscopy provides a precise molecular fingerprint but often battles fluorescence interference. Mid-IR offers excellent structural detail but is limited by shallow penetration depths.

The Challenge: Spatial Mismatch

The traditional solution to these limitations—using multiple separate probes to measure the same sample - introduces a critical error known as Spatial Mismatch. In heterogeneous mixtures, turbulent flows, or biological tissues, measuring two different spots (even simultaneously) means your data models are not observing chemically identical portions of the analyte. This discrepancy can significantly compromise the accuracy of chemometric models.

The Solution: True Data Fusion

We invite you to join us for an educational webinar on Combi Probes, where we will explore how art photonics fuses orthogonal spectroscopic techniques into a single fiber optic probe to achieve true Data Fusion. By combining different spectral methods in one probe, it is possible to save space, reduce sample volume requirements, and most importantly, ensure simultaneous measurement at the exact same sample point.

What We Will Cover

We will discuss the engineering and real-world applications behind our three primary Combi Probe configurations:

The session will demonstrate how these "hybrid models" provide higher prediction accuracy than the sum of their individual parts, creating a synergistic effect for analysis.
