Why choose Fourier Transform InfraRed (FT-IR) at Diamond for your research?
Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectroscopy is a powerful and versatile technique for molecular-scale analysis. At Diamond, our advanced IR facilities enable precise identification and quantification of individual molecular species through their unique vibrational signatures in the mid-IR range. This high-resolution spectral data is matched against robust molecular databases using a “fingerprint” approach, making FT-IR particularly effective for identifying organic and biological materials, as well as studying condensed matter systems.
Through our tailored services for industry, users gain access to IR Microspectroscopy capabilities offering exceptional spatial resolution. This is essential for investigating the physical and chemical properties of materials and surfaces at the microstructural level. These capabilities are especially valuable in biomedical research, where detailed molecular mapping of tissue sections or single cells can reveal spatially resolved compositional information.
