Journal Award/William F. Meggers Award

Since 1960, a single article has been selected each year from the Journal for citation as the most outstanding. This award was initiated through courtesy of SPEX Industries, Inc. The award included a cash honorarium. In 1968, the name of the Journal Award was changed in order to commemorate the outstanding spectroscopist William F. Meggers.  In 1978, the sponsorship of the Meggers Award was transferred from SPEX Industries to the Spectroscopy Society of Pittsburgh. In 1991, the award was turned over to the Leco Corporation.
