Smitty Grubbs Customer Story

Learn how Dr. Garry “Smitty” Grubbs II and his team at Missouri University of Science and Technology rely on Tektronix high-performance AWG70000 Series arbitrary waveform generators and DPO70000SX Series oscilloscopes to identify and explore the structure of molecules. This team designs, constructs and applies world-class rotational spectroscopy systems to study molecular bonding and chemical interactions. Rotational spectroscopy may lead to breakthroughs in reliable detection of “forever chemicals”, as well as identifying and understanding molecules in space and in computer science.

Grubbs' lab focuses on making these sophisticated tools more accessible, aiming to create smaller, efficient instruments for faster detection and analysis. His team’s efforts are democratizing high-level research, enabling global collaboration. With Tektronix's reliable and user-friendly technology, Grubbs' mission to make molecular detection more accessible and faster is becoming a reality, promising significant contributions to science and technology.
