Fourier spectrophotometers

Fine suspensions of metal/carbon nanocomposite were obtained mixing the nanopowder with polyethylene polyamine (PEPA) with further ultrasound proeessing on the stations Saphir UZV and UZTA-0.2/22-OM. The suspensions obtained were studied with the help of IR spectroscopy (IR-Fourier spectrophotometer FSM 1201).

The infrared absorbance spectra were recorded at room temperature on a Fourier transform spectrophotometer (Biucker I.F.S. 110) with a resolution of 4 cm To compare the integrated adsorbances of the various samples the weight of the pellet and the Pd content were considered. The samples were placed in a heatable cell where the catalysts were treated "in situ". Different kinds of experiments were carried out ...

A modern spectrophotometer (UV/VIS, NIR, mid-IR) consists of a number of essential components source optical bench (mirror, filter, grating, Fourier transform, diode array, IRED, AOTF) sample holder detector (PDA, CCD) amplifier computer control. Important experimental parameters are the optical resolution (the minimum difference in wavelength that can be separated by the spectrometer) and the width of the light beam entering the spectrometer (the fixed entrance slit or fibre core). Modern echelle spectral analysers record simultaneously from UV to NIR. 

Spectra were obtained using a Digilab FTS-15E Fourier Transform Spectrophotometer. A NaCl crystal mounted in a heated cell (Model 018-5322 Foxboro/Analabs, N. Haven, Ct.) was placed in the infrared beam and the chamber allowed to purge for several minutes while the cell was brought to the desired temperature. The temperature of the cell was controlled using a DuPont 900 Differential Thermal Analyzer interfaced to the spectrometer cell. A chlorobenzene solution (ca. 10 by wt.) of the sample was then applied to the crystal using cotton tipped wood splint.

We have seen in the previous section that Raman spectra are complementary to infrared spectra. Both spectroscopies provide quite useful information on the phonon structure of solids. However, infrared spectra correspond to a range from about 100 cm to about 5000 cm that is, far away from the optical range. Thus, infrared absorption spectra are generally measured by so-called Fourier Transform InfraRed (FTIR) spectrometers. These spectrometers work in a quite different way to the absorption spectrophotometers discussed in Section 1.3. 

XANES and EXAFS were conducted at BL-lOB in the Photon Factory of the National Laboratory for High Energy Physics (KEK-PF)[12]. s Fe Nttssbauer spectra were recorded with a Shimadzu MEG-2 spectrometer(13]. Isomer shifts were given relative to a-Fe. Infrared spectra were recorded by a Shimadzu Fourier-transform infrared spectrometer(FTIR-4100) with a resolution of 2 cm i. Diffuse reflectance UV-VIS spectra were obtained on a Hitachi 330 spectrophotometer.

The heart of a Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer is the interferometer in Figure 20-26. Radiation from the source at the left strikes a beamsplitter, which transmits some light and reflects some light. For the sake of this discussion, consider a beam of monochromatic radiation. (In fact, the Fourier transform spectrophotometer uses a continuum source of infrared radiation, not a monochromatic source.) For simplicity, suppose that the beamsplitter reflects half of the light and transmits half. When light strikes the beamsplitter at point O, some is reflected to a stationary mirror at a distance OS and some is transmitted to a movable mirror at a distance OM. The rays reflected by the mirrors travel back to the beamsplitter, where half of each ray is transmitted and half is reflected. One recombined ray travels in the direction of the detector, and another heads back to the source.

Since the article by Spedding1 on infrared spectroscopy and carbohydrate chemistry was published in this Series in 1964, important advances in both infrared and Raman spectroscopy have been achieved. The discovery2 of the fast Fourier transform (f.F.t.) algorithm in 1965 revitalized the field of infrared spectroscopy. The use of the f.F.t., and the introduction of efficient minicomputers, permitted the development of a new generation of infrared instruments called Fourier-transform infrared (F.t.-i.r.) spectrophotometers. The development of F.t.-i.r. spectroscopy resulted in the setting up of the software necessary to undertake signal averaging, and perform the mathematical manipulation of the spectral data in order to extract the maximum of information from the spectra.3...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used for elemental analysis of plasma-deposited polymer films. The photoelectron spectrometer (Physical Electronics, Model 548) was used with an X-ray source of Mg Ka (1253.6 eV). Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra of plasma polymers deposited on the steel substrate were recorded on a Perkin-Elmer Model 1750 spectrophotometer using the attenuated total reflection (ATR) technique. The silane plasma-deposited steel sample was cut to match precisely the surface of the reflection element, which was a high refractive index KRS-5 crystal.
