TL;DR: The application of IR interferometry or of NMR pulse methods, followed by Fourier transformation of the resultant interferogram, permits acquisition of spectral data in a time that is orders of magnitude less than by conventional spectroscopic methods.
Abstract: The recent introduction of Fourier transform methods is revolutionizing IR and NMR spectroscopy. The application of IR interferometry or of NMR pulse methods, followed by Fourier transformation of the resultant interferogram, permits acquisition of spectral data in a time that is orders of magnitude less than by conventional spectroscopic methods. This reduction in time permits the study of transient species, or by "time-averaging" procedures S/N may be improved without the expenditure of inordinate amounts of time. The FT methods finds especially important application in the study of NMR spectra of nuclei of low sensitivity and low abundance, such as (13)C.

TL;DR: The characteristic asorption, reflection, or emission of particu lar frequencies of IR radiation has been used extensively over the last two decades to identify compounds and mixtures and to investigate intermolecular and intramolecular interactions as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: The characteristic asorption, reflection, or emission of particu lar frequencies of IR radiation has been used extensively over the last two decades to identify compounds and mixtures and to investigate intermolecular and intramolecular interactions. It is probably true to say that IR spectroscopy is the most widely used instrumental technique in analytical chemistry today. This is due to a variety of reasons, including the ease of operation of many IR spectrometers, the ease in which a sample may be classified according to its chemical class from its IR spectrum, the variety of states in which a compound may be investigated, the availability of libraries of IR spectra for the unique identification of a sample, and the accuracy to which quantitative analysis may be carried out.

TL;DR: In this article, the application of the fast Fourier transform (FFT) algorithm to calculating one-dimensional and bi-dimensional (temporal and spatial), power and cross-power (coherence and phase) spectra is examined for solar photospheric fluctuations.
Abstract: The application of the fast-Fourier-transform (FFT) algorithm to calculating one-dimensional and bi-dimensional (temporal and spatial), power and cross-power (coherence and phase) spectra is examined for solar photospheric fluctuations. Alternative methods for smoothing raw spectra, direct averaging (employing various weights) and indirect truncation of the correlation function, are compared, and indirect smoothing is compared with spectra calculated by mean-lagged-product (MLP) methods. Besides providing the raw spectrum, FFT techniques easily allow computing a series of spectra with varying amounts of smoothing. From these spectra a range of satisfactory compromise between resolution and stability can be determined which helps in the interpretation of spectral trends, and in identifying more clearly the existence and significance of spectral features. For bi-dimensional spectra presented as contour plots, this range of satisfactory smoothing can be restricted, particularly when spectral trends must be represented by small-scale contours. Equivalent spectra (i.e. comparable equivalent degrees of freedom) computed or smoothed by different methods have minor, but not negligible, differences. Examination of these differences favors computing of FFT spectra smoothed by averaging for photospheric fluctuations.

TL;DR: The measurement of naturally occurring or induced circular or linear dichroism is extremely useful in the elucidation of structural problems or the investigation of the spectroscopic or magnetic properties of inorganic or solid state materials.
Abstract: The measurement of naturally occurring or induced circular or linear dichroism is extremely useful in the elucidation of structural problems or the investigation of the spectroscopic or magnetic properties of inorganic or solid state materials. The accurate study of very small phenomena (viz., 10–10 optical density units) requires the use of differential techniques whereas the direct measurement with polarized light is applicable to large signals such as those encountered for, e.g., ferromagnetic crystals.

TL;DR: Development of the arc-stabilized mercury lamp, adequate stabilization of the cooled detector, and selection of optimum sampling time have provided reproducible and high S/N interferograms of this Michelson-type Fourier spectrometer.
Abstract: This paper describes the construction, performance, and applications of a Michelson-type Fourier spectrometer designed for spectroscopy in the 10-cm−1 to 200-cm−1 spectral region. Development of the arc-stabilized mercury lamp, adequate stabilization of the cooled detector, and selection of optimum sampling time have provided reproducible and high S/N interferograms. The evaluated reproducibility and accuracy of intensity of the spectrometer are better than :±2%. An apodized resolution of 0.1 cm−1 and accuracy of frequency within 0.015 cm−1 have also been obtained. The electron spin resonance of some biological substances and the refractive index of solids, for example, have been measured with this spectrometer.

TL;DR: In this article, a procedure for converting the Varian XL-100 NMR spectrometer from continuous wave to Fourier transform operation is described, permitting the use of many different kinds of computer systems and pulse amplifiers.
Abstract: A procedure is described for converting the Varian XL‐100 NMR spectrometer from continuous wave to Fourier transform operation. The modification is relatively simple, permitting the use of many different kinds of computer systems and pulse amplifiers. Selection of either the continuous wave or Fourier transform mode is straight‐forward in the modified spectrometer.

TL;DR: High resolution spectra obtained with a PEPSIOS spectrometer using the entire disk of Jupiter, a rapidly rotating planet, are presented as an example.
Abstract: The Doppler shift of light from a rapidly rotating or rapidly flowing source limits the spectroscopic resolution with which it can be studied using Fabry-Perot spectrometers that have the usual axial fringe adjustment. Because of the angular dependence of the wavenumber transmitted by the Fabry-Perot, the entrance aperture can be positioned off-axis at an angle chosen such that the wavenumber shift across the entrance aperture matches the shift presented by the source, thereby compensating for the Doppler effect. The principle can be extended to the Michelson interferometer for Fourier transform spectroscopy when the Michelson is used without field compensation. High resolution spectra obtained with a PEPSIOS spectrometer using the entire disk of Jupiter, a rapidly rotating planet, are presented as an example.



Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that 'H Fourier transform spectroscopy can be successfully carried out on deuterated compounds containing a small, unnatural abundance of 'H.
Abstract: The application of nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy to biopolymers and other complicated compounds of biological importance is considerably aided by the use of compounds of unusual isotopic composition that can be obtained by biosynthesis. Isotope hybrid proteins that are basically fully deuterated but which contain 'H at known sites in the molecule greatly simplify the interpretation of high resolution nmr data. Fully deuterated chiorophylls and an unusual isotope hybrid chlorophyll 2H-chlorophyll a ['H-(CH,)l 11 in which only the methyl group in the carbomethoxy group contains ordinary 'H have particular utility in chlorophyll aggregation studies by nmr. Finally, it is demonstrated that 'H Fourier transform spectroscopy can be successfully carried out on deuterated compounds containing a small, unnatural abundance of 'H.

TL;DR: In this article, the use of the Michelson interferometer as a Fourier transform spectrometer was described, and the Fourier transforms of the visibility curves were taken with the aid of a digital computer.
Abstract: The use of the Michelson interferometer as a Fourier transform spectrometer is described. Fringe visibility curves are obtained with an electron photomultiplier or silicon photocell, and Fourier transforms of the visibility curves are taken with the aid of a digital computer. Application of the technique is made to the axial mode structure and phenomenon of “hole burning” in He-Ne lasers, to the shape of the mercury green line and sodium yellow lines, and to the Zeeman spectrum of the mercury green line Δmj = 0 transitions.
