Unfortunately, light spectrometer, not mass spectrometer. I'd love a DIY mass spectrometer or liquid chromatograph for biohacking!

- shpongled 5y agoI think you're going to have a very hard time doing any kind of actual (interesting) analysis on a DIY MS.
- cinntaile 5y agohttps://www.open-raman.org/ https://www.open-raman.org/ You can try building that one. It's a DIY raman spectrometer.
- alexose 5y agoAlso a neat write up of a DIY near-IR spec here: https://caoyuan.scripts.mit.edu/ir_spec.html https://caoyuan.scripts.mit.edu/ir_spec.html I'm still holding out hope someone will make an open source FT-IR design. I actually need one for a project I'm working on, and I'd prefer not to shell out thousands of dollars for a used machine.
- network2592 5y agoWhat are the key hardware differences between near IR and FT-IR? Could they be overcome with some software assisted analysis?
