The Bruker FTIR spectrometers at Mona are representative
of modern instruments for recording IR spectra.
Some equipment used in sample preparation for the Bruker Vector 22/Tensor 37 FTIR's
To interpret a spectrum requires knowledge of where the different
types of vibration are likely to occur. First off we need to recognise
that vibrations can be of several types, e.g stretches and bends. Fundamental vibrational modes.
The position of peaks can be often be determined from
correlation charts
