Morphology
spectrometric = spectrometry (transparent) = spectro + metry + ic
Formed by adding the adjective-forming suffix '-ic' to 'spectrometry', yielding an adjective meaning 'relating to spectrometry'.
Etymology
The word spectrometric combines spectrum, meaning 'a range of colours or signals', and metric, meaning 'to measure', as in meter or the metric system. So, spectrometric means 'measuring a spectrum', which is why spectrometric methods measure light or other signals to tell what a material is made of.
