    Abstract: A dual-comb spectrometer 5 with two lasers 10, 12 serving as a local oscillator and an interrogator. The lasers output light beams with respective frequency combs C1, C2 of defined free spectral range, FSR. A detector 30 can detect heterodyne mixing of the combined beams to detect an RF frequency comb C3. Respective control signals are supplied to the lasers which have functional forms configured to cause the frequencies of the lasers' frequency combs C1, C2 to tune over a defined fraction of their FSR. This enables a reduction of the effective spectral sampling period by a factor equal to the ratio of the FSR to the spectral resolution of the spectrometer, which will typically be several orders of magnitude, so that the spectral sampling period can be reduced from the GHz to the MHz range, which in turn enables a gapless spectrum to be obtained in a short time.

    Abstract: A Multi-pass optical cell (1) with an internal space (11) for laser spectroscopy is described, which is able to reduce or eliminate interference fringes appearing by performing laser absorption spectroscopy in the multi-pass optical cells (1) leading to improved absorption spectra. This is achieved by using a multi-pass optical cell (1) comprising an absorption mask (3) which is permanently or removable mountable in the internal space (11) in a rotatably fixed manner, where in a mask wall (30) a plurality of m apertures (300) is formed, in which the position of each aperture (300) is adapted to a predefinable propagation path of a main optical beam and/or the resulting reflection spot pattern (211) defined by the geometry of the multi-pass optical cell (1) and the used angle of incidence of an initial beam (20), so that each aperture (300) is traversable by the main optical beam from a first side (301) to a second side (302).

    Abstract: A process for manufacturing surface modified cellulose nanofibers comprises the step of reacting a first amount of cellulose nanofibers having a diameter of about 2 nm to about 100 nm with a second amount of an alkoxysilane compound. Thereby, said surface modified cellulose nanofibers are formed having a fraction α of hydroxyl functional groups present at the surface being condensed to the alkoxysilane compound. This is followed by the step of isolating said surface modified cellulose nanofibers, the isolation including a drying step.

    Abstract: A frequency-comb spectrometer is supplemented with an unbalanced interference device 1 which receives a portion of the comb beam, splits it into two portions and recombines them after delaying one longer than the other through an optical path difference ΔL that is set to fulfil a matching condition which ensures that the contributions arising from the individual comb lines are all in-phase and so produce a detectable amplitude variation in the recombined beam when the frequency of the comb shifts. This amplitude variation is collected as an interference signal concurrently with collecting the usual spectral data signal and is used to compute the time-varying frequency shift of the comb, thereby allowing the frequency axis of the sample spectrum to be calibrated.
