TL;DR: A method for obtaining the three-dimensional distribution of chemical shifts in a spatially inhomogeneous sample using Fourier transform NMR is presented and an estimated signal/noise ratio of 20 in 10 min is obtained.
Abstract: A method for obtaining the three-dimensional distribution of chemical shifts in a spatially inhomogeneous sample using Fourier transform NMR is presented. The method uses a sequence of pulsed field gradients to measure the Fourier transform of the desired distribution on a rectangular grid in (k,t) space. Simple Fourier inversion then recovers the original distribution. An estimated signal/noise ratio of 20 in 10 min is obtained for an "image" of the distribution of a 10 mM phosphorylated metabolite in the human head at a field of 20 kG with 2-cm resolution.

TL;DR: In this paper, the Fourier transform spectroscopy was used to detect small perturbations in the A and D states of the NO system, and accurate energy term values were obtained for the A 2 Σ+ (v = 0 to 4), D 2Σ+ and E 2 ǫ+ vibrational levels.
Abstract: The D 2Σ+ → A 2Σ+, E 2Σ+ → D 2Σ+ and E 2Σ+ → A 2Σ+ systems of NO have been recorded at high resolution by Fourier transform spectroscopy. Numerous small perturbations in the A and D states are observed for the first time. Accurate energy term values are obtained for the A 2Σ+ (v = 0 to 4), D 2Σ+ (v = 0 to 4) and E 2Σ+ (v = 0 to 2) vibrational levels.

TL;DR: Polarization modulation has been combined with Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to yield a sensitive method for obtaining infrared reflection-absorption spectra of monolayer films adsorbed on low-area metal surfaces as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Polarization modulation has been combined with Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy to yield a sensitive method for obtaining infrared reflection-absorption spectra of monolayer films adsorbed on low-area metal surfaces. A 10-A film of cellulose acetate adsorbed on a polished copper coupon was examined and the results compared with spectra obtained on the same instrument without polarization modulation. The signal-to-noise ratio is significantly better with the polarization modulation approach. The new method has the additional advantage of being sensitive only to molecules adsorbed on the surface. IR absorption by background gases is not detected.

TL;DR: In this article, the Fourier Transform Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance (FT-NQR) spectroscopy is used to detect pure quadrupole coupling transitions in solids.
Abstract: FT-NQR (Fourier Transform Nuclear Quadrupole Resonance) spectroscopy is one of the newer analytical tools. Although nuclear quadrupole coupling constants were first observed in atoms by Schmidt and Schuler1 in 1935 and in molecules by Kellog2 and coworkers in 1936, it was the discovery of pure quadrupole coupling transitions in solids by Dehmelt and Kruger3,4 in 1950 and 1951 that initiated the understanding of the NQR phenomenon as presently utilized.

TL;DR: In this article, a normalization procedure for IR-photo-acoustic spectroscopy spectra of solids and liquids is discussed and applied to experimental data obtained on polymeric samples.
Abstract: Photoacoustic spectra of materials obtained using the Fourier transform technique require normalization to achieve correct relative peak heights over the spectral range studied. This paper discusses procedures for obtaining quantitative Fourier transform IR-photoacoustic spectroscopy spectra of solids and liquids. A normalization routine for absorption amplitudes is discussed and applied to experimental data obtained on polymeric samples.

It is based on the pulse sequence (π/2)–(Acquistion/Add)–π–τ–(π/2) (Acquisition/Subtract). τ is of the order of, or shorter than, the spectrometer recovery time. The sensitivity of the method is discussed.

A few studies relating to matrix isolation used in conjunction with Raman and conventional IR spectroscopy are reviewed. The majority of analytical applications of matrix isolation vibrational spectroscopy has entailed the use of FT-IR techniques. Qualitative and quantitative results from a number of sample types are presented. The coupling of matrix isolation vibrational spectroscopy with chromatographic separations is reviewed.

TL;DR: In this paper, a Fourier transform spectrometer built with a photothermal beam deflection detector was used to record infrared spectra of organic and inorganic solids, and the total absence of sample-containing devices makes it possible to examine portions of the surfaces of objects which are very large in size.
Abstract: Infrared spectra were recorded of organic and inorganic solids with a Fourier transform spectrometer built to operate with a photothermal beam deflection detector. No sample preparation or cells per se is needed to examine milligram quantities of powder. The total absence of sample-containing devices makes it possible to examine portions of the surfaces of objects which are very large in size. Sample heating may occur, so that care must be taken with heat-sensitive materials.

TL;DR: In this article, the combination of electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) and Fourier transform (FT-IR) was tested for usefulness in surface analysis and the result verifies effective combination of these two complementary techniques.
Abstract: The combination of electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis (ESCA) and Fourier transform was tested for usefulness in surface analysis. The surface sensitivity of IR was increased by the use of IR reflection absorption spectrometry (IR-RAS) coupled with FT-IR. Examination of oxide layers of thickness of about 100 A formed on copper plates with both techniques together with ellipsometry is described in detail. Growth of oxide layers of different composition corresponding to different heating temperatures was manifested with the analysis. The result verifies effective combination of these two complementary techniques. 14 figures, 1 table.
