Workshop Description: Users of FT-IR spectrometers may have received little or no formal training in spectroscopy and therefore cannot distinguish between “good” and “bad” spectra. In this course, we will show many of the problems that are commonly encountered with FT-IR spectra measured by inexperienced (and often experienced!) users and show how to avoid them. Problems can appear from the instrument, the sample accessory and/or presentation. Since the bulk of the samples that are currently analyzed are done by Attenuated Total Reflection we will cover it in detail. We will also address common problems associated with other accessories. This year we will also be including a “tricks of the trade” component to the class.
The workshop will be held at two upcoming shows in the United States, the SCIX conference in October and the Eastern Analytical Symposium in November. The workshop is run jointly by experts in the field, including our own Jeff D’Agostino.
The workshop is aimed at those currently working with FTIR who would like to expand their knowledge of the technique, understand how to spot issues with their data, and learn how to fix them.
