Abstract

A simple demonstration utilising the optical light source of an Android tablet to obtain the absorption spectra of Rhodamine dye stained self-assembled silica microwires is demonstrated. The spectrum is collected using a portable Spectrometer. This highlights the potential of tablet technology as portable optical hardware in its own right and we discuss how to potentially achieve complete integration of spectrometer onto the tablet.
