History of Spectroscopy Article edit

Collaborated with User:Ab6gc/sandbox

We chose this article because it is pretty bare in terms of history, there is no information past 1899. There also isn't very much information in the history prior too 1899, this could easily be expanded upon. We would like to add more in depth info prior to 1899 and start putting in info for history past 1899. This article is also marked as important and a start class article.

Notes

---- This source help to start the subsection of early 20th Century (1900-1940's) in the History of Spectroscopy article. This article has no information of spectroscopy history past 1900 so this article helps give more information.

Notes

--- This source greatly helps to develop my understanding of the first IR spectrometers and the history of why they were initially developed. Also helps information from 1900 to present.
