FT-IR Spectrometers
FT-IR Spectrometer is an instrument which acquires broadband NIR to FIR spectra. Unlike a dispersive instrument, i.e. Grating Monochromator or Spectrograph, FT-IR Spectrometer collects all wavelengths simultaneously. This feature is called the Multiplex or Felgett Advantage.
FT-IR Spectrometers are often simply called FT-IRs. But for the purists, an FT-IR (Fourier Transform InfraRed) is a method of obtaining infrared spectra by first collecting an interferogram of a sample signal using an interferometer, and then performing a Fourier Transform (FT) on the interferogram to obtain the spectrum. An FT-IR Spectrometer collects and digitizes the interferogram, performs the FT function, and displays the spectrum.
The FT-IR spectrometer has the power to handle both research and routine analysis experiments. Every facet of the FT-IR spectrometer has been engineered to facilitate sample handling, provide options for integration in the laboratory, and increase laboratory throughput. With a huge installed base worldwide, a superior service team and the flexibility for many applications.
