This article aims to overview infrared (IR) spectroscopy. Simultaneously, it outlines mid-infrared (MIR), near-infrared (NIR), and far-infrared (FIR) or terahertz (THz) spectroscopy separately, compares them in terms of principles, characteristics, advantages, applications. MIR is the central spectroscopic technique IR region, mainly concerned with fundamentals molecular vibrations. NIR incorpo...

acetylation is a chemical modification of wood to enhance its properties. ir-spectroscopy is a useful technique for proofing chemical bondings in wood and the at-tenuated total reflection (atr) infrared spectroscopy technique was applied as an eas-ier technique over other ir-spectroscopies. in this research, different degrees of acetyla-tion, weight percentage gains (wpgs) in beech and pine min...

In open-path Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy, the generation of a suitable background single-beam spectrum is of major concern. The Shifting Method is a derivative-like approach to correct for the background without the need to actually measure a background spectrum using the sample single-beam spectrum. A thorough study of the Shifting Method was conducted. A set of guidelines was deve...

platinum is a metallic element, which may react with our cellular component through its involvement in cancer chemotherapy medications. cisplatin is one of the most useful antineoplastic drugs against human ovarian carcinoma, which has the central element of platinum in its structure. the nature of chemical interaction between platinum and cellular macromolecules is yet to be understood. we exa...

background : near infrared spectroscopy imaging is one of the new techniques used for investigating structural and functionality of different body tissues. this is done by injecting light into the medium and measuring the photon intensity at the surface of the tissue. method : in this paper the different medical applications, various imaging and simulation techniques of nirs imaging is describe...

this work describes the optical and structure properties of nickel sulfide and cobalt sulfide nanoparticles in zsm-5 zeolite. the samples were obtained by sulfidation of the ni2+ and co2+ ion-exchange zsm-5 zeolites in a na2s solution at room temperature. the optical properties of the samples were studied by uv-visible spectroscopy. their crystalline structure and morphology were studied by x-r...
