A no-moving-part planar array infrared spectrograph (PA-IR) equipped with a 256 x 256 mercury cadmium telluride (MCT) focal plane array has been designed and constructed. The performance of the instrument, whose frequency range extends from 2000-975 cm(-1), has been assessed in terms of resolution, bandwidth, and signal-to-noise ratio. The PA-IR spectrograph is able to record spectra with an 8....

caco3 nanoparticles have been synthesized via heat-treatment of a new precursor and solid state reaction. effect of calcinations temperature and quantity of surfactant on particle size has been investigated. the products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem), transmission electron microscopy (tem) and fourier transform infrared (ft–ir) spectroscopy.

ruthenium dioxide nanoparticles (ruo2 ) with an average particle size of 50 nm are readily synthesized from rucl3.xh2o via the precipitation process in the presence of in-situ sodium octanoate as anionic surfactant. the phase composition, morphology, lattice parameters and size of nanoparticles in these products are characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), x-ray diffrac...

Infrared (IR) radiation is a type of electromagnetic radiation. Infrared “light” has a longer wavelength than visible light. Red light has a longer wavelength than other colors of light, and infrared has even longer waves than red does; so infrared is sort of “redder-than-red” light or “beyond red” light. Infrared radiation lies between visible light and radio waves on the electromagnetic spect...

BACKGROUND Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy is an effective tool for investigation of chemical changes at the molecular level. We previously demonstrated that FT-IR spectroscopy can reliably distinguish multiple types of carcinoma from healthy tissue. Because various stomach diseases are common, it is important to explore a noninvasive and rapid method to detect malignancy and ga...

glycerol mono-oleate (gmo) was produced by direct esterification reaction with amberlyst 16 resin catalysts with the efficiency of 86% and was used as a surfactant for synthesis of cofe2o4 nano-particles by surfactant-assisted microwave method. fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ft-ir), x-ray diffraction (xrd) and scanning electron microscopy (sem) were used to consider the structural and...

Spatially resolved Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy of single oral mucosa cells and FT-IR spectroscopy of liver cell fractions produced by sucrose density gradient centrifugation have been applied to acquire structural information of cell organelles. For the spatially resolved measurements, mapping as well as mercury cadmium telluride (MCT) focal plane array (FPA) detector techni...
