Optical Characterization Laboratory

The Optical Characterization Laboratory was created to examine optical characteristics of aerosols and vapors. Here, laboratory technicians can perform optical characterization experiments on numerous substances including any aerosol, both wet and dry, as well as many vapors. Laboratory scientists have experience integrating off-the-shelf technology and can access a wide range of equipment to provide accurate and timely analysis. Environmental agencies, state and local governments, and businesses can reference available air quality studies to initiate preventative measures or remediate contaminated structures.
