Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy

Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy is a technique used to obtain an infrared spectrum of absorption or emission of a solid, liquid or gas. It is a technique used to examine chemical composition using the infrared (IR) part of the electromagnetic spectrum. FTIR spectroscopy flashes a sample with a series of broadband light of varying IR wavelengths. The resulting collection of spectra are then interpreted using the Fourier transform algorithm to indicate which parts of the spectrum were absorbed, and therefore, the chemical composition of the sample.

Perkin Elmer Spotlight 200i Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) microscope
Fourier Transform Infrared [FTIR] Spectroscopy
University of Western Australia WA Node
Description
IR transmission/reflection system to characterise spectrometer/filter performance
Related Information
Wide spectral range (SWIR, MWIR, LWIR) with wideband mercury cadmium telluride detector. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) identifies chemical bonds in a molecule by producing an infrared absorption spectrum. The spectra produce a profile of the sample, a distinctive molecular fingerprint that can be used to screen and scan samples for many different components.
