Tennessee Tech adds rare spectrometer to chemistry program

Tennessee Tech University’s Department of Chemistry has added a rare, custom-built research instrument that will expand opportunities for students and faculty while elevating the university’s research capabilities.

The new L-shaped molecular beam Fourier transform microwave spectrometer — or L-FTMW — is one of only a limited number of its kind in the world.
