To my parents, my family, and all those in spectroscopy I've worked with, and learned from, over the years.
Richard A. Crocombe, Ph.D.
This book is dedicated to John A. Reffner. Everyone needs someone in their life like you are to me: A teacher to provide them guidance when needed, a mentor to help them see what they can achieve, and a friend to talk to when they need to know it will all work out.
Pauline E. Leary, Ph.D.
The dedication of this book is shared amongst all of the members of my family. To my mother Shirley and late father Milton, I am grateful for all of the many life lessons you taught me and your encouragement to pursue a career that I love. To my twin sister Lindsey, I appreciate having you as my forever best friend, partner in crime, and womb‐mate. To my husband Matt, a choice in a life partner is the most important decision a person can make, and I chose very wisely. You are my biggest champion, and I am yours – together we can accomplish anything. And to my children Riley and Grayson, I love you so much. I hope you always stay curious because curiosity is the best teacher, the mother of invention, the cure for boredom, the key to creativity, the engine of achievement, and the beginning of science.

When I first learned that Richard Crocombe, Pauline Leary, and Brooke Kammrath were editing a two‐volume series of books that cover the development of field‐portable analytical technologies and the numerous applications of these technologies, I was excited because I knew that these scientists had the experience, knowledge, and energy to produce a great product, books that I will immediately add to my library.
So, who am I to make such a bold evaluation of these books? My name is John A. Reffner and I am currently a tenured full Professor of Forensic Science at the City University of New York's John Jay College of Criminal Justice. I have also received several distinguished awards including some for developments that enabled portable spectroscopic instruments. After graduating from Akron University in 1956, I joined the “Works Technical Analytical Laboratory” at the B.F. Goodrich Tire and Rubber Company. This experience taught me the valuable lesson that chemistry is essential for a major corporation to be successful, a lesson which was continually reinforced throughout my almost 65 years of professional experiences. I have had the good fortune of working with many prominent scientists and business leaders. I have seen how science and chemistry change the world. I have also seen how consumer demands drive technology and innovation, leading us to where we are today, immersed in essential portable technologies that have changed the world.
A short story that exemplifies my passion for the field of portable instruments is the introduction of the Dura Scope at the Pittsburgh Conference in 1998, and the subsequent development of the TravelIR portable infrared spectrometer. Our SensIR Technologies team, which included the likes of Don Sting, Jim Fitzpatrick, Don Wilks, and Bob Burch, introduced this new micro‐ATR (Attenuated Total Reflection) accessory for Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) spectrometers. While it might not seem that such an accessory could make a system portable, a scientist from a major supplier of chemicals was very excited about the product. In his work, he traveled to paper companies to resolve customer complaints. While he did not need an ATR accessory, what he did need was a small FT‐IR, possibly an ATR‐based infrared system, that could fit in the overhead storage compartment of a commercial airplane. As a result of these conversations, the TravelIR was born. The TravelIR was the first portable infrared spectrometer delivered to the market, enabling the identification of an infinite number of samples at the sample site.
As you read the 44 chapters of these books, you will see the versatility in both the instrumentation and technologies, as well as the tremendous impact these systems have upon our society. Whether considering how portable spectrometers are used in hazmat and military operations to assess safety and defense concerns, by archaeologists and other cultural historians to help understand artwork and ancient civilizations, or the value these systems offer to practitioners of the forensic, pharmaceutical, and geological sciences, the reader will appreciate the challenges to their development, the breadth of their applicability, and the irreplaceable value they afford to the end user.
