Specular Reflection Spectroscopy with Viewing
FTIR specular reflection sampling represents an important technique useful for measurement of films on reflective substrates and bulk solid materials. In most commercial accessories, the sample is placed face down on the mask or optical body making it difficult to determine the exact sampling point. An infrared spectrum was collected of ink on a coated aluminum surface using an accessory with a built-in camera for precise sample positioning.
