Open Source LabVIEW Physics Software

Raman Tool Set has been developed as a user-friendly free software for processing and analysis of Raman spectra and spectroscopy data. RamanToolSet offers the following functions for processing: - scaling spectra - offset spectra - cut spectra - averaging spectra - smoothing spectra - normalizing spectra - background subtraction - polynomial subtraction The following analytical tools have been implemented: - Principal Component Analysis (PCA) - Clustering analysis - Extended Multiplicative Signal Correction (EMSC) analysis The following mapping tools have been implemented: - Producing single spectra files from Renishaw, Witec and Horiba mapping files (.txt) - Mapping the single spectra so imported from Renishaw, Witec or Horiba files - PCA is performed over mapping spectra and PCA-Scores are mapped - ICA is performed over mapping spectra and ICA-coefficients are mapped - Clustering analysis is performed over mapping spectra and Clusters are mapped

The iCorrector is aimed to model and correct the interference fringes affecting the photoluminescence excitation spectra of thin-film dielectric samples. The calculations of the interference profile are performed taking into account the experimental conditions: excitation light incidence angle, wavelength range, luminescent centers distribution. An excitation field depth distribution map (*.bmp), normally calculated by the IMD software (D.L. Windt) is required for the calculations. The module is presented both as LabVIEW virtual instrument and executable requiring LabVIEW runtime (http://joule.ni.com/nidu/cds/view/p/id/2534/lang/en). It may be useful for physicists and material scientists working on the luminescence of thin films.

The Laser Control Utility was developed to easily handle TTL communication between any instrumentation and the Continuum Surelight laser series. This is achieved by monitoring a TTL signal via the computer LTP1 port, whose signal is transmitted via RS232 to the laser unit, also used to control basic laser parameters, like pulse divider (laser frequency) and Q-Switch. The Shutter modulation feature allows the user to use the TTL signal to open the laser shutter on demand, controlling the length of the laser pulsed as desired. This method yields reproducible full power laser pulses. The original motivation was to interface mass spectrometer data systems to diverse laser systems. Developed by: Jair Menegon, Paulo Moreira and Thiago Correra - University of São Paulo - Brazil.

Nanopuller by Konrad Pawlak and Janusz Strzelecki http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.ultramic.2016.01.008 http://www.biofizyka.fizyka.umk.pl/ Laboratory made AFM force spectroscopy setups were present in milestone single molecule experiments and there is a growing number of groups using such equipment even though the commercial setups are nowadays widely available. The ability to tailor the setup accordingly to particular application is an advantage that makes the effort necessary for construction a worthy investment. However, one advantage of using a commercial setup – repeatability and unification, cannot be archived, as every laboratory is developing a specific data acquisition protocol and software. Our Nanopuller software (open ISC license) presented here is intended to eliminate this obstacle. We give access to a program, which with only a minimum effort can be adjusted for vast array of typical equipment.

Spectroradiometer control for autonomous reflectance measurements from moving vessels. The software incorporates GPS signal parsing, control of the sensor platform viewing angle (stepper motor control), sensor triggering and data recording. Continue to the download section for the latest release information Rrs data processing code (the 'fingerprint technique') is also available - but moved to my github page: https://github.com/StefanSimis -------- Oct 2014: a beta version is available (20141006) Sep 2014 news: The latest version is 20140723, addressing some bugs. See the change log. Enjoy! Two Rflex units collected over 30,000 validated Rrs spectra on the Baltic Sea this year! See http://www.ferryscope.org for dissemination of these results in the coming years. ------ Licence: http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/3.0/

Automated Quantitative Spectroscopic Analysis Combining Background Subtraction, Cosmic-Ray Removal and Peak Fitting programmed in LabVIEW. Current version 1.1.0. Binaries and source available.

This toolkit allows complete control of a microscopy setup from Labview, Matlab, Scilab, Python, .Net, VB, IgorPro, Mathematica and more. Included is a standalone program for image acquisition and scripting control of a scientific microscope.

MOPlot - visualization program for fast Molecular Orbitals Plotting (and other stuff - please, read the full description) from the outputs of the Gaussian 09-94, Molcas, Gamess/US, Firefly quantum chemical calculation packages.

The goal of this project is to develop an easily modifiable combination of VHDL firmware and LabView drivers for use with laboratory automation control and data acquisition using Terasic's DE2 board and the ISP1362 USB interface chip.
