FTIR Analyzer

Purpose

The FTIR Analyzer skill provides molecular characterization of nanomaterials through infrared spectroscopy, enabling identification of functional groups, surface modifications, and chemical bonding.

Capabilities

ATR-FTIR for nanoparticle surfaces
Functional group identification
Surface modification verification
Gas-phase FTIR for reactions
Diffuse reflectance (DRIFTS)
Spectral library searching

Usage Guidelines

FTIR Analysis

Sample Preparation
- Use ATR for nanoparticles
- Ensure good contact for ATR
- Consider KBr pellet for transmission
Spectrum Analysis
- Identify characteristic bands
- Compare to reference spectra
- Quantify using Beer-Lambert
Surface Chemistry
- Monitor ligand exchange
- Verify functionalization
- Detect degradation products

Process Integration

Multi-Modal Nanomaterial Characterization Pipeline
Nanomaterial Surface Functionalization Pipeline
