Our Mission
Near-infrared (NIR)
spectroscopy is now widely applied as a nondestructive and noninvasive
analytical method in various fields such as food, agriculture,
pharmaceuticals, medical science, material evaluation and so on. Many
symposia and workshops on practical use of NIR spectroscopy are held in Japan. On the
other hand, however, the basic aspects of NIR spectroscopy including the
method for the analyses of observed spectra as vibrational spectra have not
been studied sufficiently yet. In order to develop new technique for
analyzing spectra and to explore new fields for applications of NIR
spectroscopy, a systematic cross-sectional survey of huge databases on NIR
spectroscopy is also urgently required. NIR spectroscopy division hold BOF
meetings at regular intervals and provides information of principle of NIR
spectroscopy, method of measurement, spectral analysis technique and
systematic analysis of accumulated data from practical use. We will
contribute to the further development of NIR spectroscopy from the basic
perspective.
