Fourier Transform Infrared
Spectroscopy (FTIR) is a powerful and very widely used technique to
analyze organic compounds and to determine the chemical structure of many
inorganic materials. when infrared light passes through a sample (which
can be solid, liquid or gas) some of the light will be absorbed by the
sample and this absorption allows identification of the sample
composition. FTIR
has many areas of application, from monitoring and analyzing air
pollution; vehicle emission problems; chemical contamination of soil;
forensic crime scene investigations, including possible terrorism attacks
(by looking for chemical residue that might indicate say explosive
residue) and so forth. In
addition to these portable units for the types of application mentioned
above this product line also includes laboratory units where mobile FTIR
analysis is not needed. Typical
examples are general chemical analysis, measurement of thin films on
substrates, measurement of semiconductor processes such as analysis of
molding compounds during (final packing), analysis of doping levels of
wafers and many other areas of semiconductor. |
