What Does PAS Stand For?
PAS stands for Photoacoustic Spectroscopy
Photoacoustic Spectroscopy (PAS) is an advanced analytical technique that combines optical and acoustic methods to study the interaction of light with matter. It involves the absorption of pulsed or modulated light by a sample, resulting in localized heating that generates sound waves. These sound waves are then detected and analyzed to obtain information about the sample's composition, structure, and properties. PAS is particularly valuable in fields such as chemical analysis, biomedical research, and environmental monitoring due to its high sensitivity and ability to probe diverse materials.
