Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrophotometer System

格林内尔学院化学系最近获得了一种傅里叶变换红外(FTIR)分光光度系统，具有中等高的分辨率和足够的计算机能力，可以进行复杂的数据分析。光谱数据库和衰减全反射采样器是系统的组成部分。这次收购的一个主要影响是在仪器分析课程中，广泛的数据处理、数据库搜索、定量分析和微光技术将是主要重点。此外，该系统还用于其他高级课程，特别是正在进行的学生研究计划，以及用于获取和分析气体的高分辨率光谱的物理化学实验室。

A Fourier Transform infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometer system, with moderately high resolution and sufficient computer power to allow sophisticated data analysis, has recently been acquired by the Chemistry Department of Grinnell College. A spectral data base and an attenuated total reflectance sampling accessory are integral parts of the system. A major impact of this acquisition is in the Instrumental Analysis course where extensive data manipulation, data base searching, quantitative analysis and low light techniques will be a major emphasis. In addition, the system is used in other upper division courses, particularly in the ongoing active student research program, and in the Physical Chemistry laboratory for obtaining and analyzing high resolution spectra of gases.
