Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) have been used to get the surface concentration of copper on powders of zinc sulfide or sphalerites. Spectrometer were first tested on a model system (dyes adsorbed on silica)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
