electromagnetic spectrometry

Electromagnetic spectrometry is a technique used to analyze light or other electromagnetic radiation by measuring its different wavelengths and intensities. It helps identify materials or analyze substances based on how they interact with various parts of the electromagnetic spectrum—like visible light, ultraviolet, or infrared. For example, it can determine the composition of a sample by detecting specific light signatures emitted or absorbed. This method is widely used in science, medicine, and industry for identification, quality control, and research purposes, providing valuable insights into the properties and composition of objects or substances through their electromagnetic signals.
