Institute for Spectroscopy Russian Academy of Sciences

The Institute for Spectroscopy Russian Academy of Sciences is a research facility in Troitsk that specializes in light-matter interactions and spectroscopic measurement techniques. Scientists here investigate the physical properties of materials using various optical and spectral methods to understand how light behaves when it encounters different substances.

The institute was founded in 1968 and has since become a center for fundamental research in spectroscopy with significant contributions to physical science. In 2019, it received recognition as a Historic Site by the European Physical Society for its long-standing scientific achievements.

The institute maintains an international scientific exchange program, facilitating research collaborations between Russian scientists and researchers from various countries worldwide.

Access is generally not available to the public since it is an active research facility with specialized laboratories. Those interested in science can try contacting ahead to inquire about tours or special events that may occasionally open to visitors.

The institute hosts regular workshops focusing on metallic, oxide, and nanomaterials research, alternating between Russian and international research facilities.
