During the FTIR process, an interferometer modulates the wavelength of a broad-band infrared light source. A detector then measures the intensity of the light after it has interacted with the sample.

Improvements in FTIR instrumentation and sample handling methods have led to the creation of new accessories that streamline or eliminate cumbersome sample preparation. These accessories include ...

FTIR is a powerful analytical technique used ... straightforward measurements with minimal sample preparation. The sample is placed directly on a crystal, such as diamond or germanium, and the ...
