The waveguide is made by laser irradiation of a thin liquid layer, enclosed between two glass plates. The liquid is a divinyl oligomer containing uranyl perchlorate as a photoinitiator. After removal of the cover glass and the unexposed material, the... 

For solid samples with a low surface area, such as thin films or single crystals, attenuated total reflection (ATR) method is often used. In this technique, a plate of a single crystal waveguide such as Ge is place in contact with the sample and the IR beam is passed through the IR-transmitting crystal in a manner such that it alternately undergoes total internal reflection from its front and rear faces. At each reflection, some of the IRradiation may be absorbed by species adsorbed on the solid sample surface.
