Chemistry - Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectrometry

Chemistry has four Fourier Transform Infra-red Spectrometers for general use:

Perkin Elmer Spectrum One
Purchased in late 2003 it has 0.5 cm-1 resolution, with typical range 400-4000 cm-1.
Mattson Sirius
This has a liquid nitrogen cooled Cadmium-Telluride detector and is capable of 0.125 wavenumber resolution. The Mattson has recently been upgraded with a Windows based operating system to improve data management.
Bio-Rad FTS40
This has 0.5 cm-1 resolution, with typical range 400-4000 cm-1
Bio-Rad FTS45
This has 0.125 cm-1 resolution, typical range 400-4000 cm-1.

Enquiries and quotes for work should be directed to Oscar Delborello. The Quickenden and Baker research groups also have FTIRs.
