Ultima Sampling Kit – With the Highest Performance, Single-reflection ATR and Backup Accessories to Do it All

In recent years, single-reflection ATR measurements have becomequite popular for at least two main reasons – they further simplifysample preparation and also reduce the complexity of traditionalFTIR measurements. This is achieved through the reduction of thesampling area (smaller sample volume/size requirement), ease ofcleaning and the introduction of more rigid, diamond-protectedsampling interfaces, capable of withstanding higher pressures andharder samples. In many cases the single-reflection ATR hasbecome capable of analyzing a wide variety of samples – includingrigid solids and hard powders – which are difficult to achieve witha multi-reflection ATR. For these reasons, the single reflection ATRhas gained the reputation of being a universal sampling device.

This is true 80% of the time. The other 20% (especially whendealing with poor absorbers, some powders and films) still needto be analyzed by other methods. For this reason, PIKE designedan accessory kit built around the MIRacle – Single Reflection ATR,and also included basic diffuse reflectance and specularreflectance accessories. This combination offers one of the mostcomplete range of sampling devices used in FTIR and covers awide variety of sampling needs.The Ultima Sampling Kit containsthe following accessories:

MIRacle – Single Reflection ATRDesigned to analyze a wide variety of solid and liquid samples. Itoffers a number of unique features including: a universal samplingplate which accommodates liquids, solids and powders, small (1.8 mm) sampling interface making the analysis of small and/orawkward samples easy, and interchangeable sampling plates. Allthe above options allow for the best selection of an appropriate spectral range, and a configuration which matches the optical,physical and chemical properties of analyzed samples. Thepatented optical design of the accessory offers the highest optical throughput and sensitivity. The MIRacle is equipped with apressure clamp and purge attachments.

EasiDiff – Diffuse Reflectance AccessoryAn ideal product for the analysis of powders and intractablesolids. With a set of convenient tools for sample preparation, this compact, high performance accessory provides outstandingcollection efficiency.

30Spec – Specular Reflectance AccessoryA great accessory for the analysis of thin organic films depositedon reflective surfaces and a myriad of surface coatings and surfacetreatments. The 30Spec is slide-mounted and comes with a set ofthree masks which allow for the isolation of small, predeterminedspots on larger samples, and the analysis of small samples.

MIRacle Crystal OptionsThe MIRacle ATR accessory is available with 4 different crystaltypes (ZnSe, diamond, Ge, and Si) and with unique versions ofthese crystal materials.

Crystal plates are pinned in place and easily changeable within seconds with no alignment required. With this flexibility,you can change the crystal type to exactly match your samplingrequirements. For example, diamond is ideal for brittle samplesbecause it will not scratch, whereas, Ge is ideal for carbon-filledsamples because of its high refractive index and lower depth of penetration. Three reflection crystal plates provide increasedsensitivity for minor components in liquid or non-rigid materials.

An optional liquids retainer andvolatiles cover set is compatible with allcrystal plates, eliminating the need topurchase flat and trough crystal plates.A high-pressure clamp is required foruse with the liquids retainer and thevolatiles cover.

Table 1 shows MIRacle ATR crystal characteristics includingrefractive index, spectral range cutoff, pH range and hardness forsingle reflection ATR crystal plates. Still have questions? Please callas we are pleased to discuss your sampling requirements.

MIRacle Pressure Clamp OptionsMIRacle pressure clamps are pinned in place and easily changeablewithin seconds. A high-pressure clamp is recommended for mostapplications and is available in basic and digital configurations.The digital version includes a high-pressure clamp and the DigitalForce Adapter (DFA) that attaches directly to the clamping assembly.The DFA’s embedded load cell exhibits high linearity, reproducibility,and exceptional accuracy. The magnitude of applied force is dis-played on an external easy-to-read LCD readout. The digital clampis ideal for applications that require controlled and reproduciblepressure. All clamps include tips for hard, soft and pellet-shapedsamples. High-pressure clamps are calibrated to deliver over10,000 psi of pressure when used with the single reflection crystal plates.

Ability to deliver high pressure is very important for achievingspectral quality. In the example below, we demonstrate spectraldifferences for a porous polymer sample measured with themicrometer clamp and the high-pressure clamp. Clearly the spectrum obtained using the high-pressure clamp is required for a high quality result.

MIRacle high-pressure clamps utilize a slip-clutch mechanismto prevent excessive pressure from being applied to the crystal.

MIRacle Sampling OptionsThe MIRacle can be configured with optional resistively heatedcrystal plates using a PIKE temperature control module. Digitaland digital with PC control versions are available. The PC controlmodule includes TempPRO software which provides a graphicaluser interface for temperature control and kinetic measurements.

MIRacle ATR SummaryThe MIRacle ATR accessory is a high performance FTIR samplingtool for solid, liquid, or polymer samples. Easily changeable crystalplates provide optimized spectral data for unique sample types.With options for single or three reflection crystal plates, severalpressure clamp styles and heating or cooling, the MIRacle is ableto address a wide range of FTIR sampling applications.

ATR/FTIR spectrum of print area on paper run on GladiATR Vision withdiamond crystal. Image of the analysis area is shown in the inset.Spectral range is 4000–400 cm-1 with standard FTIR optics.

The GladiATR Vision™ is a novel sampling tool which couplessmall area infrared analysis with simultaneous viewing. Samplesare placed face down and positioned on the diamond crystalwhile its image is projected in real-time on the LCD screen. Findingand optimizing the sample placement for specific analysis areas iseasy and fast! Analysis of thick or non-transparent samples is noproblem because viewing is through the diamond crystal.

The GladiATR Vision accessory utilizes an innovative opticaldesign with IR beam and visible optical image converging at thesample position – ensuring that “What you see is what you sample!”The 110X magnification of the sample image enables the positioningof even relatively small samples into the center of the diamondcrystal for optimized analysis. Analysis of samples as small as 50 microns in size is doable with the GladiATR Vision accessory.Visible images from the GladiATR Vision are of highest qualitycolor rendition because its refractive optics are fully transparent.

The GladiATR Vision optical design is all reflective, preservingthe full spectral range inherent to diamond. For standard mid-IRFTIR spectrometers, the spectral range available with the GladiATRVision will be 4000–400 cm-1. For FTIR spectrometers equipped withfar-IR optics, the spectral range is extended to less than 50 cm-1.

The GladiATR Vision diamond ATR is available in configurationsto fit most FTIR spectrometers.

Dedicated GladiATR and GladiATR Vision Sampling Tools – More Options to Address Your Specific Application RequirementsExpanded Range Ge Crystal PlateDue to the compact crystal size and the all-reflective optics of theGladiATR platform, the Ge Crystal Plate offers an expanded spectralrange from 4000–450 cm-1. A Ge ATR crystal is used to measuresamples with a high refractive index. Types of high refractivematerials that would benefit from sampling on the expandedrange Ge ATR crystal are carbon black filled samples and inorganicmaterials such as oxides, aluminas, titania, and minerals. The Ge crystal plate (non-viewing) may be fitted for the GladiATR orGladiATR Vision. Crystal plates are easily interchangeable. A heatedversion is available.

Specular Reflection PlateThe GladiATR may be converted from an ATR accessory to a specular reflection accessory by using the Specular ReflectionPlate. A viewing Specular Reflection Plate is available for theGladiATR Vision. The angle of incidence is 45 degrees, and plate is easily interchangeable with ATR plates.

Flow-Through AttachmentThe Flow-Through Attachment is used for continuous monitoringor handling samples that pose a hazard from ambient exposure.Samples are introduced using the Luer-Lok fitting by connecting asyringe or a flow line. The High-Pressure Clamp is required.

Liquids Retainer and Volatiles CoverThe Liquids Retainer offers a trough configuration for GladiATRand GladiATR Vision. The volatiles cover reduces the amount ofevaporation of a highly volatile liquid sample on the surface ofthe crystal. The High-Pressure Clamp is required.

Horizontal Attenuated Total Reflectance (HATR) accessories successfully replace constant path transmission cells, salt platesand KBr pellets used in the analysis of liquid, semi-liquid materialsand a number of solids. HATRs feature a constant and reproducibleeffective pathlength and are well suited for both qualitative andquantitative applications. In general, sampling is achieved byplacing the sample onto the HATR crystal – generally eliminatingsample preparation.

PIKE Technologies HATR products are available in 2 baseoptic configurations. The HATR is an in-compartment design forsamples which fit into the FTIR sample compartment.

The PIKE Technologies HATRPlus is an out-of-compartmentdesign for samples which are larger and do not fit into the FTIRsample compartment. The sampling surface of the HATRPlusextends above the FTIR cover, thereby permitting analysis of verylarge samples. Applications examples include coatings on largemanufactured components, layered composition analysis on largeobjects, and skin analysis in the health care industry.

The PIKE Technologies HATRs are high performance accessories,carefully designed to provide excellent results with minimum effort.The accessories are easily installed in the sample compartment,locking into position on the sample compartment baseplate.

Stable alignment provides excellent analytical precision.Crystal plate changeover is rapid, allowing a wide range of samplesto be analyzed with maximum convenience. PIKE TechnologiesHATRs have been optimized for maximum optical throughput andexcellent quality spectra can be obtained from demanding samples.Several high quality crystal materials covering a full spectrum ofapplications are available. Trough crystal plates are sealed usingmetallic gaskets, eliminating premature failure and the risk ofcross-contamination associated with inferior, epoxy-bonded systems. Flat crystal plates are designed with positive surfacerelief to aid in improved sample contact.

All PIKE HATRs include a purge tube interface for the FTIRspectrometer. This provides full integration of the accessory withthe FTIR spectrometer’s purging system (sealed and desiccated orpurged) and removal of water and carbon dioxide artifacts fromthe FTIR spectra. Thanks to this, purging is very efficient and thespectrometer can be operated with the sample compartmentdoor open.

HATR Crystal Plate ChoicesPIKE Technologies HATR crystal plates are available in trough andflat plate configurations.

The trough plate is designed for easy sampling, with a large,recessed crystal to accommodate the sample – generally a liquid,powder, or paste. The trough plate is ideal when samples must be cleaned from the crystal with some type of aqueous or organic solvent.

Typically, only a thin layer of the sample needs to be appliedonto the crystal surface. For fast evaporating samples, a volatilescover should be used to cover the sampling area.

Soft powders will often produce good spectra when analyzedby HATR, assuming that they can be put in intimate contact withthe crystal. A powder press option is used to achieve this. Thisdevice is placed directly on top of the sample filled trough andpressed by hand until the desired result is obtained.

The flat plate is used for the analysis of solid materials –including polymer and film samples. It is ideal for solid sampleswhich are too large to fit within the trough plate configuration.

The crystal is mounted slightly above the surface of the metalplate, which helps to achieve good crystal/sample contact whenthe flat plate press is used (the press attaches easily to the back ofthe HATR with two thumb screws).

The ZnSe and Ge 45° flat plates are available in a sealed version, which is ideal for sampling of oils and other types of low surface tension liquids.

ATRMax II Variable Angle Horizontal ATR Accessory – HATR for Inquisitive Minds

The ATRMax II is a high throughput, variable angle horizontal ATRaccessory developed for use in FTIR spectrometers. The designemploys a unique optical layout (U.S. patent 5,105,196) whichenables samples to be analyzed over a range of incident angles(from 25 to 65 degrees). Variable angle of incidence providesexperimental control over the depth of penetration of an IRbeam into the sample and the number of beam reflections in the ATR crystal, which in turn determines the effective IR beampathlength for a given experiment. Adjustable angle of incidenceallows immediate optimization of measurements for otherwisedifficult to analyze samples. The ATRMax can be used for depthprofiling studies where spectral composition can be analyzed relative to depth of penetration as the angle of incidence is changed.

Two crystal configurations, flat plate and trough plate, areavailable for the ATRMax II. The flat plate design is used for theanalysis of coatings, films and solids. Typical applications includedepth profiling studies and optimization of ATR spectral data. A sample clamp is required to provide intimate contact betweenthe sample and crystal surface.

F E ATUR E S O F THE ATRMAX I I

• Selectable angle of incidence – 20 to 70 degrees in onedegree increments

• 0.5 to 10 micron depth of penetration – dependent on crystalmaterial, angle of incidence, sample’s refractive index andwavelength of IR beam – ideal for depth profiling studies

• 3 to 12 reflections of IR beam – dependent upon angle of incidence – ideal for optimizing ATR sampling methods

• Flat and trough crystal plates for solids, films, powders andliquid samples – optional temperature control for all plates

• Optional, high-pressure clamp for sampling of films, coatings or powdered samples

• Motorized option with electronic control module and AutoPRO™software for automated, high-precision experiments

• Sealed and purgeable optical design to eliminate watervapor and carbon dioxide interferences

The trough crystal plate is recommended for use with liquids,pastes and powdered samples. Typical applications include theanalysis of oils, detergents, and other liquid samples. A volatilescover and powder press are included with the ATRMax II for usewith this crystal mount.

The ATR crystals for the ATRMax II are of trapezoidal shapeand 56 mm long, 10 mm wide and 4 mm thick. Standard bevelangles at each end of the crystal are available in 30, 45, and 60degree versions. Coupling the variable angle of incidence of theATRMax II with the variable crystal face angles, one can selecteffective angle of incidence ranging from 25 to 65 degrees andthe range in number of reflections from 3 to 12.

The variable angle of incidence can be controlled manuallyor with an optional motorized attachment for the ATRMax II.Multiple ATR measurements at different angles of incidence canbe fully automated with the motorized version and PIKE TechnologiesAutoPRO software. Automation streamlines the collection of spectra from multiple angles of incidence. With the automatedATRMax accessory, the entire experiment can be pre-programmedand executed by the computer.

Advantages of the automated ATRMax II system include:

• Computer controlled precision, accuracy and repeatability

• Synchronization of mirror position changes with collection of sample spectra

• Full integration of the PIKE Technologies AutoPRO software withFTIR spectrometer programs

• Tailor made, predefined experiments

• “Hands-free” operation

VeeMAX III with ATR – Variable Angle, Single Reflection ATR for Depth Profiling Studies

The VeeMAX III with ATR offers continuous variable angle of incidenceand a variety of crystal plates to selectively control the depth ofpenetration of the IR beam into the sample. ATR applicationsinclude the study of layered samples, coatings, release agents,monolayers on silicon and chemical migration studies.

The VeeMAX III with ATR accessory provides exceptionally high throughput (over 50% with 45 degree ZnSe crystal) to minimizesampling time and enable detection of low concentration compo-nents in samples of complex composition. The flat plate crystalsoffered for the VeeMAX III are ideal for solid and layered samplesand are designed for use with the optional pressure clamp. The

Classic VATR – Variable Angle ATR for Analysis of Solids, Films and Coatings

The Variable Angle ATR, is a traditional in-compartment accessorywith the ATR crystal mounted vertically with respect to the spec-trometer baseplate. Its optical layout is based on an optimizedGilby configuration and allows continuous adjustment of the incident beam angle between 30 to 60 degrees. This accessory is suitable for the analysis of solids, films and coatings, but for obvious reasons, it cannot be used for working with liquids. Forenhanced sensitivity the sample may be mounted on both sidesof the crystal. A unique mirror adjustment mechanism which utilizes mirror placement and proportional pivoting allows precise and repeatable alignment. The PIKE Technologies VariableAngle ATR offers flexibility when the frequent replacement of ATR crystals is required. VATR is an excellent, low-cost tool forteaching the principles of internal reflection spectroscopy, and for basic research.

ATR – Theory and ApplicationsAttenuated Total Reflectance (ATR) is today the most widely usedFTIR sampling tool. ATR generally allows qualitative or quantitativeanalysis of samples with little or no sample preparation, whichgreatly speeds sample analysis. The main benefit of ATR samplingcomes from the very thin sampling pathlength and depth of penetration of the IR beam into the sample. This is in contrast totraditional FTIR sampling by transmission where the sample mustbe diluted with IR transparent salt, pressed into a pellet or pressed toa thin film, prior to analysis to prevent totally absorbing bands inthe infrared spectrum.

A comparison of transmission versus ATR sampling results fora thick polymer sample is shown below where the sample is toothick for high quality transmission analysis (shown in the lowerblue spectrum). In transmission spectroscopy, the IR beam passesthrough the sample and the effective pathlength is determined bythe thickness of the sample and its orientation to the directionalplane of the IR beam. Clearly in the example below the sample istoo thick for transmission analysis because most of the IR bandsare totally absorbing.

However, simply placing the thick sample on the ATR crystal(Diamond MIRacle) and applying pressure generates a nearly perfect result (upper red spectrum) – identified by library searchas a polybutylene terephthalate. The total analysis time for thethick polymer by ATR was less than 1 minute.

How ATR WorksWith ATR sampling we direct the IR beam into a crystal of relativelyhigher refractive index. The IR beam reflects from the internalsurface of the crystal and creates an evanescent wave, which projects orthogonally into the sample in intimate contact with the ATR crystal. Some of the energy of the evanescent wave isabsorbed by the sample and the reflected radiation (some nowabsorbed by the sample) is returned to the detector. This ATRphenomenon is shown graphically in the following representationof a single reflection ATR.

While the analysis of samples by ATR is easy, it is interestingand useful to be aware of each of the following experimental factors and how they affect the final spectrum:

• Refractive indices of the ATR crystal and the sample

• Angle of incidence of the IR beam

• Critical angle

• Depth of penetration

• Wavelength of the IR beam

• Effective pathlength

• Number of reflections

• Quality of the sample contact with ATR crystal

• ATR crystal characteristics

The refractive indices of the crystal and sample are importantconsiderations in the ATR sampling technique by virtue of the following equation,

where n2 is the refractive index of the sample, n1 is the refractiveindex of the crystal and θc is the critical angle.

When we exceed the critical angle, we will observe a purelyATR spectral result. If the critical angle is not met, we will observea combined ATR and external reflectance result. This occurs if theangle of incidence of the IR beam is too low, if the refractiveindex of the crystal is too low, if the refractive index of the sampleis too high or a combination of these 3 factors. In most cases thisproblem is not observed, however, an example of this is shown inthe following spectral data for your reference. The sample is ahigh refractive index liquid (n=1.8) run on a 45 degree accessoryusing diamond and Ge crystal plates. The spectrum run on the Ge crystal plate exhibits a normal baseline and symmetricabsorbance bands – critical angle is met. The spectrum run onthe diamond crystal plate has a baseline shifted and asymmetricabsorbance bands due to non-adherence to the critical anglerequirements for this set of analysis parameters.

Another way to correct the spectral artifacts observed (above) inthe high refractive index sample spectrum would be to increasethe angle of incidence in the ATR accessory to a value above thecritical angle. Adjustment or selection of the angle of incidence isavailable in several of the PIKE Technologies ATR accessories.

Further useful consideration for ATR analysis is the depth ofpenetration (dp) of the IR beam into the sample. Technically, thisis defined as the distance required for the electric field amplitudeto fall to e-1 of its value at the surface and is further defined by:

where λ is the wavelength of light and θ is the angle of incidenceof the IR beam relative to a perpendicular from the surface of thecrystal. Typical depth of penetration in ATR ranges from about 0.5microns up to about 5 microns depending upon these experimentalconditions. Shown in the graphical representation of the ATR phenomenon, the strength of the evanescent wave decays rapidlyas we progress from the surface of the ATR crystal. If we wish tocompare the sample absorbance of the ATR measurement withthat of a transmission measurement, we need to calculate thevolume of the evanescent wave, known as the effective penetrationof the IR beam. The effective penetration (de), is unique for parallelpolarization (deII) and perpendicular polarization (d⊥) and theseare defined by:

The effective penetration for an unpolarized IR beam is the average of the parallel and perpendicular penetration.

Generally, a single reflection ATR is ideal for qualitative analysis,“What is my sample?” When we need to look at minor componentsof a sample for qualitative or quantitative analysis, then we needto increase the effective path length (EPL) by increasing the numberof reflections (N) within the ATR crystal. The effective pathlengthin ATR is derived by the following equation:

An example of the benefit of increased number of reflectionsis shown in the following spectral data for the analysis of carbo-hydrate content in a soft drink sample. The upper red spectrum isrun using a 10 reflection HATR accessory. The lower blue spectrumis run using a single reflection ATR using an identical scaling factor. Clearly the minor carbohydrate bands are more readilyapparent in the multi-reflection ATR accessory.

For your convenience we have calculated theoretical valuesof depth of penetration, effective penetration, and effective pathlength for typical combinations of crystal materials, angles of incidence, and number of reflections shown in Table 1.

With the thin penetration of the evanescent wave into thesample, it is obvious that intimate contact of the sample be madeonto the surface of the ATR crystal. For liquid or pliable samples,quality of sample contact with the ATR crystal is generally nota problem. For rigid, irregular shaped or porous samples, high pressure sufficient to deform the sample will increase the extentof sample contact and thereby increase sample absorbance. Thisis shown in the following spectral data collected for a porousfoam polymer using a MIRacle ATR with ZnSe crystal.

The lower blue spectrum was collected with low pressureapplied to the foam sample, whereas the upper red spectrum isproduced with high pressure. The ATR absorbance using highpressure is about 10 times greater than with low pressure – all other sampling factors are identical. For rigid, crystalline, orhard, irregular surface samples we recommend a single reflectionDiamond MIRacle ATR because it is relatively easy to apply highpressure onto the small crystal (1.8 mm diameter) with the high-pressure clamp, producing over 10,000 PSI.

The selection of the ATR crystal characteristics should bematched to the type of samples we run. Selection can be made tocontrol depth of penetration of the IR beam, for hardness to preventcrystal damage, for desired spectral range and for acceptable pHrange for acid or caustic samples. No individual crystal type willsolve all problems, so PIKE Technologies offers a broad range ofchoices for ATR. Table 2 will give you some guidelines for selectionof your ATR crystal.

EasiDiff – Workhorse Diffuse Reflectance Accessory

The PIKE Technologies EasiDiff is an economical, high quality diffusereflectance accessory designed to analyze a wide variety of solidsamples. It is most often used in the analysis of pharmaceuticals,illicit drugs, inorganic solids and minerals, and powdered chemicals.The EasiDiff reduces the time required to produce an infraredspectrum compared to KBr pellet techniques. Typically, a smallamount of sample (about 1%) is mixed and ground with KBr powderand the spectrum is collected.

The EasiDiff employs an elegant, high performance opticaldesign for maximum energy throughput and ease of operation.Optical components critical to achieving this performance arepermanently aligned. Focusing is achieved by bringing the sample(not the collection mirror) to the optimum position with amicrometer. A dual position sample holder permits backgroundand sample collection in a simple, two-step process.

A special version of the EasiDiff for NIR measurements (gold-coated optics) is also available.

DiffusIR – Research Grade Diffuse Reflectance Accessory

The PIKE Technologies DiffusIR™ is a research grade diffusereflectance accessory with a large, efficient optical design accommodating the optional PIKE Technologies environmentalchambers. These specialized chambers can be used to study thermodynamic properties of materials, determine reactionmechanisms, perform catalytic studies and much more.

The heart of the DiffusIR is a unique monolithic ellipsoidalreflector permanentlyfixed in place – eliminating the needfor repositioning thefocus optics for sampleplacement. TheDiffusIR optical designis optimized to efficiently collect diffuse radiation generated from the sample and minimize the effects ofthe specular radiation component.

With the DiffusIR, sample introduction is performed using an integral 2 position slide – enabling background and sample spectrato be collected without loss of purge. The sample height can be optimized by using the micrometer sample focusing adjustment. In this manner the sensitivity of the accessory is maximized without

sacrificing precision. The DiffusIR comesequipped with a Sample Preparation andLoading Kit and a Sample Abrasion Kit forthe analysis of intractable samples. TheDiffusIR optics are enclosed and equippedwith purge tubes for the elimination ofatmospheric interferences.

The PIKE Technologies environmental chambers for theDiffusIR can be operated at temperatures ranging from -150 to900 ºC and at pressures up to 1500 psi. The optional chambers areeasily inserted into the DiffusIR and secured using push lock pins.

Coupling the DiffusIR and environmental chambers with thePIKE PC Controlled Temperature Module and TempPRO™ softwareprovides the ability to graphically set up the experiment with up to 10 ramps and data collection initiated at specified time ortemperature intervals.

Advanced temperature studies of materials in controlled environments can be done using the PIKE environmental chambers.

A special version of the DiffusIR with gold-coated optics isavailable for maximum mid-IR performance and for NIR diffusereflectance sampling. The DiffusIR and its options are compatiblewith most FTIR spectrometers.

UpIR – Upward Looking Diffuse Reflectance Accessory

The UpIR is an innovative FTIR accessory developed to support a wide range of diffuse reflectance applications. The UpIR isdesigned as a tall structured sampling accessory and is used by simply placing large, solid samples face down onto the top plateof the accessory. In the case of powdered or small solids, they canbe placed into a suitable sampling cup at the top of the UpIR.This design is uniquely suitable for mid-IR analysis of coatings onmetallic surfaces of large or small samples. For this application,analysis is rapid and easy because no sample preparation orcleanup is required. Since the sampling area of the UpIR is abovethe plane of the FTIR instrument, even large samples that do notfit into the sample compartment can be analyzed with this accessory.

In the NIR spectral region the UpIR is ideal for the QC analysis of powdered and tablet samples when the gold-coated optics version is selected.

The accessory is equipped with an upward-looking, high-per-formance ellipsoidal mirror which minimizes the effect of specularradiation. The sampling stage provides a sampling port with insertsfor diffuse reflectance or specular reflectance measurements.

All mirrors, including the ellipsoidal collection mirror, are per-manently mounted. The position of the sampling stage is controlledwith the adjustable micrometer to achieve the best possible through-put. Spectral analysis involves collecting a background spectrum withthe reference mirror in the sampling position. After this step, thesample is simply placed face down onto the sampling port and datacollection is initiated.

The gold-coated optics version of the UpIR provides highestthroughput in the mid-IR spectral region and is recommended forNIR sampling. The UpIR accessory includes a solids sampling plate forflat samples, and a ZnSe windowed sampling cup for powdered orsmall solids analysis. The accessory is equipped with purge tubes forelimination of CO2 and water interferences from infrared spectra.

For NIR sampling of solids, powders or tablet samples, thesapphire windowed sampling cup is recommended. In the NIRspectral region samples can be analyzed while contained in a glassvial. For this measurement, the optional 21 mm glass vial holder isrecommended.

Diffuse Reflectance – Theory and ApplicationsDiffuse Reflectance – Ideal for Powdered Samples and Intractable SolidsDiffuse reflectance is an excellent sampling tool for powdered orcrystalline materials in the mid-IR and NIR spectral ranges. It canalso be used for analysis of intractable solid samples. As withtransmission analysis, samples to be run by diffuse reflectance aregenerally ground and mixed with an IR transparent salt such aspotassium bromide (KBr) prior to sampling. Diffuse reflectance isan excellent sampling technique as it eliminates the time-consumingprocess of pressing pellets for transmission measurements. Diffusereflectance can also be used to study the effects of temperatureand catalysis by configuring the accessory with a heating chamber.

Perhaps one of the greatest additional benefits of diffusereflectance sampling is that it is ideally amenable to automation.Methods can be developed with a manual version diffuse reflectionaccessory and then moved to automation to increase samplethroughput. PIKE Technologies offers several diffuse reflectanceaccessory configurations – basic, advanced with heat chambercapabilities, upward directed IR beam for easy sampling access,and fully automated for maximum sampling efficiency.

How Diffuse Reflectance WorksDiffuse reflectance relies upon the focused projection of the spectrometer beam into the sample where it is reflected, scat-tered and transmitted through the sample material (shown onthe right). The back reflected, diffusely scattered light (some of which is absorbed by thesample) is then collected by theaccessory and directed to thedetector optics.

Only the part of the beamthat is scattered within a sampleand returned to the surface is considered to be diffuse reflection.

Some powders may be analyzed by diffuse reflectance asneat samples (coal samples, soil samples, diffuse coatings on areflective base). Usually, the sample must be ground and mixedwith a non-absorbing matrix such as KBr. The sample to matrixratio should be between 1 to 5% (by weight). Diluting ensures adeeper penetration of the incident beam into the sample whichincreases the contribution of the scattered component in thespectrum and minimizes the specular reflection component.

The specular reflectance component in diffuse reflectancespectra causes changes in band shapes, their relative intensity,and, in some cases, it is responsible for complete band inversions(Restrahlen bands). Dilution of the sample with a non-absorbingmatrix minimizes these effects (particle size and sample loadingmechanics also play an important role).

This is shown below in the spectral data for caffeine, wherethe upper spectrum is diluted to about 2% by weight in KBr anddemonstrates very high quality with sharp, well-definedabsorbance bands. The lower spectrum is of undiluted caffeinemeasured by diffuse reflectance and shows derivative shapedbands in the 1700 cm-1 and 1500 cm-1 region of the data. Theupper spectrum of diluted caffeine is clearly of higher spectralquality than that of the undiluted caffeine.

Other factors related to high spectral quality for diffusereflectance sampling are listed below;

• Particle Size – reducing the size of the sample particles reducesthe contribution of reflection from the surface. Smaller particlesimprove the quality of spectra (narrow bandwidths and betterrelative intensity). The recommended size of the sample/matrixparticles is 50 micrometers or less (comparable to the consistencyof the finely ground flour). This fine powder is easily achievedby using a ShakIR mixer.

• Refractive Index – effects result in specular reflectance contri-butions (spectra of highly reflecting samples will be more distorted by the specular reflectance component). This effectcan be significantly reduced by sample dilution.

• Homogeneity – samples prepared for diffuse reflectance measurements should be uniformly and well mixed. Non-homogenous samples will lack reproducibility and will be difficult to quantify. An ideal way to mix samples for diffusereflectance is by using a ShakIR.

• Packing – the required sample depth is governed by the amountof sample scattering. The minimum necessary depth is about1.5 mm. The sample should be loosely but evenly packed in the cup to maximize IR beam penetration and minimize spectral distortions.

Even with all these sample preparation practices, the raw diffuse reflectance spectra will appear different from its transmissionequivalent (stronger than expected absorption from weak IR bands).A Kubelka-Munk conversion can be applied to a diffuse reflectancespectrum to compensate for these differences. This conversion isavailable in most FTIR software packages.

The Kubelka-Munk equation is expressed as

where R is the absolute reflectance of the sampled layer, k is themolar absorption coefficient and s is the scattering coefficient.

The spectra shown above demonstrate this spectral conversionfor ibuprofen collected by diffuse reflectance. The sample wasdiluted to about 1% by weight in KBr and mixed using the ShakIR.The Kubelka-Munk converted spectrum for ibuprofen showsexcellent comparison with the transmission spectrum and is easilyidentified using library search of a transmission spectral data base.

The Kubelka-Munk equation creates a linear relationship forspectral intensity relative to sample concentration (it assumesinfinite sample dilution in a non-absorbing matrix, a constantscattering coefficient and an “infinitely thick” sample layer). These conditions can be achieved for highly diluted, small particle samples (the scattering coefficient is a function of sample sizeand packing) and a sample layer of at least 1.5 mm. With propersample preparation diffuse, reflectance spectroscopy can provideppm sensitivity and high quality results.

Plastic Bumpers and Tough SamplesSometimes it is necessary to analyze a sample which simply doesnot fit in a spectrometer’s sample compartment – the analysis ofpolymer-based automotive components or painted panels aretypical examples.

A special diffuse reflectance technique allows quick and simpleanalysis of such samples in a relatively non-destructive manner. A small amount of the sample can be collected by abrasion on a diamond or silicon carbide (SiC) abrasion disk and analyzedimmediately with the help of a diffuse reflectance accessory.

The figure above shows the diffuse reflectance spectrum of aautomotive body component. The PIKE Abrasion Kit with diamondsampling disk was rubbed across the large automotive componentwhich collects some of the polymer material into the web of thesampling disk. Spectra were co-added for a 1 minute time periodand ratioed to the diamond disk background spectrum. Theresulting spectrum is of excellent quality and is identified as apolypropylene copolymer.

Diffuse reflectance can also be used for the analysis of liquidsamples. In this application a small amount of the sample is dispensed directly onto the KBr powder and analyzed.

For the analysis of powders the following procedure is recommended;

• Place about 200–400 mg of KBr into the ShakIR vial and shakefor 30 seconds

• Fill the background diffuse cup with this KBr

• Remove excess KBr with a flat edge – the KBr should be loosely packed

• Add 1 to 5 mg of the sample to the remaining KBr in theShakIR vial and shake for 30 seconds

• Fill the sample diffuse cup with this mixed sample/KBr

• Remove excess sample with a flat edge – the sample should be loosely packed

• Place the background and sample diffuse cups into the sample holder

• Slide the sample holder into the accessory

• Position the KBr cup in the beam and collect a background

• Move the holder to the sample position and collect a samplespectrum (the ratio of these two spectra will produce a spectrum of the sample)

• Convert the raw diffuse reflectance spectrum to Kubelka-Munk

Under ideal conditions the transmission of the strongestband in the spectrum should be in the 50% range. If the resultingbands are too intense or distorted, further dilute the sample andmake sure that all other measurement affecting factors (particlesize, homogeneity and packing) are within required limits.

SummaryDiffuse reflectance accessories make the analysis of a wide rangeof solid samples easier, faster and more efficient.

The PIKE Technologies VeeMAX III is a high performance and highlyversatile specular reflectance accessory designed to analyze awide range of samples. From monolayers to relatively thick films,the VeeMAX III with variable angle of incidence can be optimizedfor all specular applications. The unique optical design of thisproduct (U.S. Patent No. 5,106,196) enables the accessory to be inalignment for all angles of incidence. The angle may be variedcontinuously from thirty to eighty degrees by the rotation of asingle control. The sample is placed face down on the samplingsurface. Because of the unrestricted access to the sampling area,large samples may be readily analyzed. To suit different samplinggeometries, masks with 2", 5/8" and 3/8" apertures are provided.Thanks to the optical design of this accessory, excellent throughputis available even at high angles of incidence. The VeeMAX III has abuilt-in polarizer mount to permit selection of polarization anglewithout disturbing purge.

An optional motorized version of the accessory is available. Itfeatures a stepper motor with complementary electronics, MotionControl Unit, and PIKE Technologies AutoPRO software. In thiscombination, operation of the VeeMAX III can be integrated withthe spectrometer software, which allows the operator to preciselyand reliably control a wide range of angles of incidence and datacollection simultaneously from the computer keyboard.

AGA – Advanced Grazing Angle Specular Reflectance for Thin Films with Precise Spot Control

The PIKE Technologies AGA – Advanced Grazing Angle specularreflectance accessory is a novel instrument designed for quantitativemeasurement of spatially defined areas of thin films on reflectivesubstrates. Traditional grazing angle accessories produce a sampling area which is elliptical in shape and non-uniformly illuminates the sample area. This large asymmetrical samplingarea causes problems when quantitative analysis are to be performed on small sample areas.

The Advanced Grazing Angle (AGA) accessory has beendesigned to overcome this deficiency. The size and shape of theilluminated spot on the sample is defined by the optics containedin the accessory. The AGA optical design uses primary imagingfrom one of 5 user defined, slide-mounted pin mirrors selectablefrom 1/8" to 1/2".

The beam from the spectrometer is focused onto the pin mirror. The angle of incidence is equal to 80 degrees. The portionof the beam that is reflected from this mirror is imaged at unitmagnification onto the sample, striking it at the same 80 degrees.Thus, the beam at the sample position is uniform and circular indimension – providing excellent quantitative results for thedefined sample area.

Absolute Reflectance Accessory – Measure Absolute Sample Reflectance

Sample reflectance is usually measured in comparison to a highreflectance diffuse gold or a high reflectance gold mirror. Thesample reflectance is measured and calculated against these standards that have 94–99% reflectance in the infrared region.

Absolute reflectance measurement has to be even more accurate than measured by other accessories. Unfortunately, nostandards exist today that have guaranteed 100% reflectance,against which unknown samples could be compared. PIKETechnologies have developed a Absolute Reflectance accessorywhich does not require reflectance standards due to its unique V / W optical arrangement. The beam in the V position reflectsfrom the reference mirror. In the W position it is reflecting fromthe sample twice and the same reference mirror at 12°. Theabsolute reflectance of a sample is then the square root of themeasured value at a given wavenumber or wavelength. The twoconfigurations are easily selected by rotating the sample holder180 degrees with its pinned-in-place mount and the sample isheld by a quick-release mount.

Specular Reflectance – Theory and ApplicationsSpecular reflectance sampling in FTIR represents a very importanttechnique useful for measurement of thin films on reflective substrates, analysis of bulk materials and measurement of mono-molecular layers on a substrate material. Often the specularreflectance technique provides a means of sample analysis withno sample preparation – keeping the sample intact for othermeasurements.

The basics of the sampling technique involve measurementof the reflected energy from a sample surface at a given angle ofincidence. The electromagnetic and physical phenomena whichoccur at and near the surface are dependent upon the angle ofincidence of the illuminating beam, refractive index and thicknessof the sample and other sample and experimental conditions. Adiscussion of all of the physical parameters and considerationssurrounding the specular reflectance sampling technique isbeyond the scope of this overview. We will present the specularreflectance sampling technique from an applications orientedperspective.

Types of specular reflectance experiments

• Reflection-Absorption of relatively thin films on reflective substrates measured at near normal angle of incidence

• Specular Reflectance measurements of relatively thick samplesmeasured at near normal angle of incidence

• Grazing Angle Reflection-Absorption of ultra-thin films or mono-layers deposited on surfaces measured at high angle of incidence

In the case of a relatively thin film on a reflective substrate,the specular reflectance experiment may be thought of as similarto a “double-pass transmission” measurement and can be represented as shown in the following illustration;

The incident FTIR beam represented by I0 illuminates the thinfilm of a given refractive index, n2 and at an angle of incidence, θ1.Some of the incident beam is reflected from the sample surface,represented by IR at the incident angle, θ1 and is also known asthe specular component. Some of the incident beam is transmittedinto the sample represented by IT at an angle of θ2 – calculatedfrom Snell’s Law.

n1sinθ1 = n2sinθ2

At the reflective substrate, the beam reflects back to the surface of the thin film. When the beam exits the thin film it hasgeometrically passed through the film twice and is now representedas IA. Infrared energy is absorbed at characteristic wavelengths asthis beam passes through the thin film and its spectrum is recorded.The specular reflectance spectra produced from relatively thinfilms on reflective substrates measured at near-normal angle ofincidence are typically of high quality and very similar to spectraobtained from a transmission measurement. This result is expectedas the intensity of IA is high relative to the specular component, IR.

For relatively thick samples, the specular reflectance experimentproduces results which require additional considerations as thespecular component of the total reflected radiation is relatively high.

Again, the incident FTIR beam represented by I0 illuminatesthe sample of a given refractive index, n2 and at an angle of incidence, θ1. Some of the incident beam is reflected from thesample surface, represented by IR at the incident angle, θ1. Someof the incident beam is transmitted into the sample representedby IT at an angle of θ2. As predicted by Fresnel equations, the percent of reflected vs. transmitted light increases with higherangles of incidence of the illuminating beam. Furthermore, therefractive index of the sample, surface roughness and sampleabsorption coefficient at a given wavelength all contribute to theintensity of the reflected beam.

At wavelengths where the sample exhibits a strong IR absorption,the reflectivity of the sample increases. The superposition of theextinction coefficient spectrum with the refractive index dispersionresults in a spectrum with derivative shaped bands. This specularreflection spectrum can be transformed using a Kramers-Kronigconversion to a transmission-like spectrum as shown in the example below.

Our third application of specular reflectance is the measure-ment of relatively thin films and mono-molecular layers at grazingangle of incidence. At high angles of incidence, between 60 and85 degrees, the electromagnetic field in the plane of the incidentand reflected radiation is greatly increased relative to a near normalangle of incidence. The perpendicular component of the electro-magnetic field of the reflecting radiation is not enhanced.

Because of the orientation of the electro-magnetic field atthe surface for grazing angle measurements, the use of an IRpolarizer greatly improves the sampling result. By collecting thespectrum at grazing angle of incidence with P-polarization, weonly examine the enhanced portion of the electromagnetic fieldat the sample surface, thereby producing a stronger absorbancespectrum.

Specular reflectance is a valuable FTIR sampling techniquefor the analysis of thin films on reflective substrates, for theanalysis of relatively thick films on reflective materials and foranalysis of bulk materials where no sample preparation is preferred. PIKE Technologies offers a complete line of specularreflectance accessories and options to do these analysis and perform these experiments.

Automated Polarizers


Polarizers are valuable tools used for spectroscopic analysis ofsample orientation and for measuring thin films on reflective surfaces. This overview presents basic polarization theory andhighlights some useful polarization applications.

For the purposes of discussing polarizers, light is consideredan electric field with a magnitude oscillating in time. Light propagating along the z axis can be described as a combinationof electric vectors in x and y axis. Linearly polarized light may bethought of as consisting of an x and a y component with differentrelative magnitudes. For example, if the y component is close tozero, the light is considered fully polarized in the x direction.

Polarizers are devices that split unpolarized light into twoorthogonal components; one of the linearly polarized componentsis transmitted, the other is reflected, redirected or absorbed. Themost important features of a good polarizer are brightness, contrast and durability. Brightness and contrast can be describedby two main parameters; K1 and K2.

K1 = Transmission efficiency for normally incident polarizedlight whose electric field vector is perpendicular to thewire direction.

K2 = Transmission efficiency for normally incident polarizedlight whose electric field vector is parallel to the wiredirection.

For a ‘perfect polarizer’ K1 = 1, which means full transmissionof polarized light whose electric field vector is in the preferreddirection and K2 = 0, which means complete blockage of a beamof polarized light whose electric vector is perpendicular to the former. Other measures of performance deduced from K1 and K2 are

Degree of polarization =

Extinction Ratio =

Principal transmittance ratio or contrast =

Polarizers may be made from very fine conducting parallelelements or grid placed upon a suitable transparent base material.When the grid spacing is much smaller than the wavelength oflight, the light with the electric vector parallel with the grid willbe reflected and only the component with perpendicular electricvector will be transmitted (shown graphically on the right).

The overall transmission characteristic of the polarizerdepends upon the substrate, but the polarization efficiencydepends upon the period, line width and other design parametersof the polarizer.

In the mid-infrared range, the most practical and commonlyused polarizers are ruled or holographic wire grid structures. Thepolarization effect comes from the same principle as the freestanding wire grid, except the fine wires are formed on the surface of an infrared transmitting optical window material.

Polarization efficiency depends on smaller grid spacing than thewavelength and on the conductivity of the wires. In the case of aruled polarizer, the surface of the optical element is created by a diamond needle to form very fine parallel lines, such as 1200lines/mm, on the surface. The optical element is then placed into avacuum chamber and this pattern is partially coated with aluminumor other evaporated metallic layer. The spacing between theevaporated thin lines has to be very small, typically a fraction ofthe wavelength. Ruled polarizers have good performance and aredurable at high laser powers, but can only be made on hard,non-granular materials that can be ruled, such as ZnSe.

Holography is another method used to form the fine metallicwire pattern on the surface of the polarizer element. Two coherentlaser beams are directed onto the surface of the optical elementwhich is coated with a very thin layer of photo resist. The interference pattern formed at the intersection of the two beamsis allowed to expose the photo resist. The lines in between theexposed photo resist are removed and then coated in a vacuumchamber similar to the ruled grating type. The advantage of holographic polarizers is that a wider variety of materials can beused such as the softer KRS-5. As mentioned earlier, the efficiencyof the polarizer depends on the grid spacing formed among thewires. Holographic techniques allow more uniform grid patternsbecause the spacing is produced optically. Light scatter due toimperfections of ruled grooves are also reduced. If the grid spacingis smaller, the polarizer is more efficient. The spacing errors havealso much less effect on the efficiency if the grid is much smallerthan the wavelength. The trade-off with tighter grid is the reductionof the optical throughput. These parameters are carefully optimizedin the design of the polarizer elements and the right polarizercan be selected for specific experimental conditions.

Specifications and performance characteristics of polarizersoffered by PIKE Technologies are shown in Table 1.

Table 1: Polarizer properties

Graphical representation of the polarization effect


The optical material substrate used to create the polarizersdetermines the wavelength range of the polarizer – such as ZnSeor KRS-5. Table 1 shows the K1 values of PIKE Technologies polarizers.The maximum transmitted light is affected by the transmission ofthe materials and the scattering of the ruled and evaporated surfaces. Fresnel losses are determined by the refractive indexand the performance of the anti-reflection coating on the element.The maximum transmission compared to a fully depolarized openbeam is typically less than 50%. However, FTIR spectrometers produce slightly polarized beams, which in most cases are orientedin the vertical direction in the sample compartment. Thus theapparent transmission of a single polarizer oriented vertically and compared to open beam can be over 50%.

The other critical parameter of polarizers, the contrast, canbe measured by crossing two polarizers and recording thethroughput signal. For efficient polarizers in a practical spectroscopysetting, such as using a converging infrared beam in the samplecompartment of an FTIR spectrometer, it is expected that thelight level should be less than 1%. For selected high performancepolarizers it can be better than 0.5%.

Polarizers are usually mounted in a plastic disc and placed in a rotating holder with an angle scale. This way, the angle ofthe polarizer orientation can be positioned with approximately 1 degree repeatability. Motorized polarizers are available withmuch better angular accuracy and precision. The automatedpolarizers are also very useful for conducting a series of experimentswith different angle settings under complete computer control.

One of the main uses of infrared polarizers is to monitormolecular orientation in samples such as films and fibers. Duringmanufacture polymers tend to orient along the axis of themechanical stretching and this preferred orientation is retainedafter the material stops flowing. In some cases, polymers are amixture of crystalline, more polarized, and amorphous, lesspolarized, forms of the material. In order to study orientation,polarized light is directed on the film or fiber. The polarized lightelectrical vector coinciding with the dipole of the infrared activemoiety increases in absorption intensity, thereby revealing theband assignment and the orientation of the molecular group.Single crystals placed in the focus of polarized light also absorbselectively, depending on the orientation of the crystal.

Polarizers can also be used in conjunction with attenuatedtotal reflection (ATR). Even without polarizers, for any ATR thatretains the orientation relative to the incoming infrared beam,there could be spectral differences noted when an oriented sampleis placed with its direction along the optical axis or perpendicularto it. The phenomenon is related to penetration depth differencesfor the light components polarized parallel or perpendicular withthe reflective surface (see ATR Theory and Applications).

Another important application of polarizers is the enhancementof the signal measuring thin films on polished semiconductors,metallic mirrors and other reflective surfaces.

Using large angle reflectance optics, the grazing anglereflectance of the thin films can be measured. Substantial signalenhancement can be achieved by using polarized light in conjunction with a grazing angle accessory. As an example, a thin oily deposit on a gold mirror can be measured with good signal-to-noise ratio by using polarized light with a specularreflectance accessory set at 80 degrees. Background spectra foreach result were collected at the identical polarization angle asthe sample. As seen in the spectra below, the light polarized suchthat the electric vector is perpendicular to the metallic mirror surface is enhanced. The spectrum measured with the polarizationperpendicular to the surface (electric vector parallel with the surface) is not detected. The non-polarized light measurement isa combination of the two polarized measurements, showing a signal with less contrast than the red trace.

SummaryPolarizers are highly useful spectroscopy sampling tools for the measurement of samples with molecular orientation, for measuring thin films on reflective surfaces and for molecularspectroscopic research.

Mid-IR IntegratIR™ – Integrating Sphere

The integrating sphere is very often an accessory of choice whenstudying reflectance properties of solids, analyzing light scatteringand/or highly absorbing samples and collecting spectra difficult toobtain with standard sampling techniques. PIKE Technologiesoffers Mid-IR integrating spheres, designed for research and standard applications that require high sensitivity and ability tocollect high quality data from difficult to analyze samples.

The PIKE IntegratIR spheres are available in the upward anddownward looking configurations and are suitable for the meas-urements of absolute and relative diffuse reflectance of solids,powders and opaque liquids. Both feature 3 inch diameter highlyreflective gold-coated integrating spheres. The accessories mountin the sample compartment of the FTIR spectrophotometer, butuse a dedicated detector for maximum performance.

The upward looking Mid-IR sphere features a 12 degree illumination of the sample, and offers a specular exclusion port.Reflectance samples are placed directly onto the sample portlocated on the top portion of the sphere. This sphere is ideal forlarge and/or thick solid samples. For powder samples, a standardZnSe window is available. If preferred, a KBr window can also beused with the sample plate to minimize the reflection loss com-pared to the ZnSe.

The downward looking Mid-IR IntegratIR allows the sample tobe placed underneath the sphere. This configuration is desirablefor measurements of powders and particulate materials becausean incidence beam strikes the sample directly, without passingthrough an IR transparent window. A specular exclusion port is astandard feature on this accessory.

For all spheres, the selection of light illumination onto thesample or onto the reference surface is done via a flipper mirror.This allows the background to be collected using either the substitution method or the Taylor method.

Diffuse transmittance of partially transmitting materials can bemeasured with either sphere. This is done by placing the sampleon a standard 2" x 3" sample holder and siding it in the mountlocated in front of the transmission port.

NIR IntegratIR – Integrating Sphere

The PIKE Technologies NIR IntegratIR is a near-infrared (NIR)Integrating Sphere for quantitative and qualitative measurementsof a wide variety of solids and paste materials. The NIR IntegratIR collects reflected energy from a spherical perspective and therebycaptures complete and quantitative response from the sample.Using near-infrared chemometrics, qualitative product identificationand quantitative analysis may be performed on pharmaceutical,nutraceutical, chemical, polymer, textile, food, agricultural andother samples.

The NIR IntegratIR accessory features a 2" high reflectivitygold-coated integrating sphere and a high-speed, low-noise indium-gallium-arsenide (InGaAs) detector, transfer optics andinterface electronics. The NIR IntegratIR fits into the sample compartment of most commercial FTIR spectrometers and itselectronics interface as an external detector of the spectrometer.A 10 mm diameter horizontal sampling port makes the placementof samples onto the accessory very easy. An optimized borosilicatewindow serves as a sampling port at the top of the integratingsphere. The window is bonded and sealed to protect the spherefrom corrosive materials and contamination.

Sampling of tablets, packaging materials and plastics is easilyaccomplished by placing the sample directly on the window ofthe upward facing sphere. Powders, creams, pastes or liquids containing reflective particles may be placed in disposable flat-bottom vials – eliminating the need for any sample cleanup. Thevials may be held in place by a sample-positioning vial holder,resulting in more repeatable measurements.

High quality spectra are produced quickly using the NIRIntegratIR – making qualitative and quantitative analysis of awide variety of sample types efficient and reliable.

Integrating Spheres – Introduction and TheoryMeasuring Sample ReflectanceReflectance sampling accessories rely upon a light beam comingfrom the spectrometer to be focused upon the sample. In orderto achieve the best signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), the smaller thefocus is, the easier it is to refocus the illuminated sample spotback onto the detector. In order to measure light reflected at alarger angle, optical designs will allow only a small area of thesample to be projected onto the detector. This arrangementserves well if the sample is microscopically homogeneous, butwill result in a larger sample position error. When the sample ismoved, the focused beam will see a different portion of the sampleresulting in measurement-to-measurement differences. This iscalled insertion error because the spectrum will be slightly different each time the sample is inserted.

Some industrial or natural samples are inhomogeneouseither because they are mixtures of different substances orbecause they have a particle size comparable to the probingbeam diameter. Clearly, if the probing beam could be larger andthe reflected light could all be collected, a more representativespectrum could be measured.

Some other samples develop a directional scattering. Forexample, fibers wound on a mandrel are highly oriented, not justmacroscopically as parallel, unidirectional filaments, but also inmany cases the molecules of the drawn fibers are oriented withinthe fiber itself. Such a sample, when placed in a reflectance accessory will generate different results depending on the anglefrom which the detector is “viewing” the sample. When the overallreflectance needs to be measured reproducibly, for example tomeasure the concentration of a minor ingredient in the sample,only isotropic optical systems, insensitive to such directionalitiescould be utilized.

Furthermore, in some cases, not just the reflectance in asmall solid angle but the reflectance in all angles is sought. Mostreflectance accessories measure at fixed or variable angles, nar-rower or wider collection angles, but there is a need for a devicethat uniformly collects all reflected light from a sample. In otherwords it measures the total reflectance of the sample.

Therefore the main reasons for using integrating spheres forthe measurement of sample reflectance are the following:

• Efficient measurement of combined diffuse and specularreflectance

• Uniform detection of reflectance even when sample is inhomogeneous

• Isotropic detection of reflectance even on samples that reflect in preferred directions

• Reduction of polarization effects from the illuminating beamand the sample

• Measurement of absolute reflectance (with special integrating spheres)

All of the above concerns are addressed with integratingsphere based reflectometers.

Integrating Sphere OpticsIntegrating spheres are highly reflective enclosures that areplaced in close proximity to the sample, such that the reflectedlight enters the sphere, bounces around the highly reflective diffuse surface of the sphere wall and finally impinges upon thedetector – usually part of the integrating sphere assembly. Thename, integrating sphere, refers to one of the main functions ofthe device, namely that it spatially integrates the light flux, in ourapplication the light reflected from a sample. In spite of the longhistory of engineering and development of the sphere, the appli-cations and further developments continue to this day. Advancesin the theory, detector and electronics development and most ofall, new applications, drive the progress.

As the name implies, the main part of the device is a spherewith a very highly reflecting inner surface. The surface shouldapproach the ideal Lambertian scatterer, which means that thelight falling on the surface is evenly scattered in all directions andthe scattered light intensity is proportional to the cosine of theangle of observation.

In an upward sample positioning sphere the infrared beamfrom the interferometer is directed through an entrance portonto the sample placed behind the sample port (shown above).Samples can be directly touching the sphere or separated fromthe sphere by a thin, infrared transparent window. The detector is placed close to the sphere, so that it can view the integratingsphere with a large solid angle. In order to improve the isotropy(non-directionality) of the detection, the detector is not directly inthe line of sight of the sample. A small, also highly reflective andscattering baffle is placed in the sphere such that it blocks thefirst reflection of the sample from reaching the detector.

PERSPECTIVES

A well-designed sphere has the sample close to the spheregeometry so that the sphere will collect close to the full availablehemispherical reflectance (2π steradians). A window to separatethe sphere and sample may be important in some cases, but itwill place the sample a small distance from the sphere, therebysomewhat reducing the collected high-angle reflectance. The PIKETechnologies integrating spheres are coated with the highest possible reflective surface for the desired wavelength region. Thecoating of the surface of the sphere has to be uniform and closeto being a perfect Lambertian scatterer. These characteristicsallow the light falling in the sphere to be uniformly distributedover the entire surface of the sphere. It is also important howmuch of this light is actually collected on the detector surface.

Sphere ThroughputThe throughput of a single sphere may be defined as a functionof the hemispherical reflectance to the average spherical wallreflectance ratio. The closer the sphere surface is to idealreflectance, the higher the throughput. The detector, the sampleand the illumination require that a portion of the wall of thecomplete sphere be removed. Smaller cutouts for beam input and output result in higher energy throughput. Due to other considerations, such as reduction of light scatter from the edgesof the sphere cutouts, called ports, these have to be optimizedand cannot be too small.

The throughput can be expressed with these sphere designparameters:

Where Ad is the detector area, As is the sphere area, Pw is thesphere wall hemispherical reflectance, Pw,avg is the average spherewall reflectance.

The sphere throughput is higher if the light falling on thedetector is increased by the multiple reflections of the light.Another way of looking at the integrating sphere is that it enhancesthe detector signal by collecting the light, and if the wall surfaceis reflective enough, bounce it around until it illuminates thedetector. The factor that is used to express this gain is called thesphere multiplier (M), which is a function of the wall reflectance(Pw), the proportion of the total area of ports to the surface of thesphere (f).

The brightness of the sphere, using the same amount ofinput light flux, is dependent on the wall reflectivity, the port-to-sphere surface ratio and the size of the sphere surface.

where Φi is the input light flux and As is the area of the spherewall surface.

For the sphere the area of the sphere obviously depends onthe sphere diameter, and thus the formula shows that a smallersphere is brighter than a larger diameter one.

The sphere diameter cannot be reduced too far however,because the sample diameter will also have to be decreased proportionally when the sphere is smaller. For typical spectroscopicapplications the optimum sphere diameter is influenced by thebeam size coming from the FTIR spectrometer and the typicalsample size of 3–25 mm. Most integrating sphere modules use a2–4 inch diameter sphere to accommodate the above designparameters. In a practical design, the openings of the sphere needto be kept around 5% for optimum throughput. Wall reflectanceis usually between 95–99% and results in a sphere gain of 10–30.

Integrating Spheres for Mid-IR and NIRIntegrating spheres, although much more efficient than an opticalsystem with an equivalent detector position, still have lowerthroughput than the direct imaging optics. In the visible and NIRspectral region, where there are very good sources and excellent,high-speed detectors are readily available, the SNR is usually notlimited by the reduced light level. In the mid-IR spectral region,in order to utilize the above discussed advantages and benefits ofintegrating spheres, the reduced throughput needs to be offset bythe use of the high sensitivity, cooled detectors, such as the liquidnitrogen cooled MCT detector utilized by PIKE Technologies. Thenear-infrared and mid-infrared measurements using integratingsphere optics have different analytical and measurement goals aswell as different features. PIKE Technologies offers both mid-IRand NIR versions.

The PIKE Technologies Heated Liquid Sample Holder has beendesigned to provide a quick and easy way of analyzing a widerange of liquids at prescribed temperatures or a pre-programmedtemperature ramp. The accessory features an open well with integrated heating coils and digital temperature controller locatedat its base. The sampling well can be fitted with molded cups –if disposable sampling is required.

Typical measurements are performed with fiber optic probesmounted in the well and connected to mid-IR, NIR or UV-Vis spectrometer – depending on application needs. The probe isfirmly held in place while the heated sample is introduced byraising the heated cup body. This configuration providesenhanced measurement precision because energy is maintainedthrough the constrained probe fibers.

The temperature range supported by the Heated LiquidSample Holder spans from ambient to 130 °C. The accessory is most often used in analysis and quality control of oils and high-boiling liquid samples.

The temperature of the Heated Liquid Sample Holder is regulated by an integrated digital temperature controller.

Microsampling Microsampling accessories make an ideal addition

to an FTIR spectrometer when you need to do

analysis of samples which are considerably

smaller than a typical 8–10 mm IR beam size.

PIKE Technologies offers microsampling accessories

which demagnify the FTIR beam to a smaller

dimension and thereby increase IR throughput

for small samples.

µMAX – Sample Compartment Microscope for FTIR

The µMAX™ is an all new optical design for IR microanalysis, providing high performance sampling at low-cost with exceptionalease of use. The µMAX is designed to fit into the sample compart-ment of most FTIR spectrometers. The compact, planar opticallayout minimizes the pathlength of the IR beam and therebymaximizes IR throughput.

All operations with the µMAX are intuitive and made eveneasier with standard Dichroic Optics which provides full viewingof the sample while collecting IR spectra. With Dichroic Optics youcan view the sample area and simultaneously search for appropriateIR spectral content – greatly speeding microanalysis. The fullyvariable X, Y, θ See Thru aperture for transmission provides optimized sample dimensioning – for getting the maximum IRsignal from every sample.

The µMAX IR microscope uses 7.45X Schwartzchild objectiveand condenser to focus the IR beam onto the sample and provideexcellent sample visualization – better than 1 micron visibleimage resolution. An optional CCD camera enables video imageprojection onto the PC. With the Dichroic Optics of the µMAX andspectral preview of the FTIR software one can view changing IRspectra and sample position in real-time on the PC.

The µMAX is the first sample compartment IR microscopeaccessory capable of all microsampling modes – transmission,reflection and ATR. The µMAX fits into the sample compartment,using the spectrometers detector for convenience and samplingflexibility. For relatively larger micro samples (100 microns andgreater) the DTGS detector provides excellent performance withthe µMAX and enables full mid-IR spectral range coverage to 450 cm-1. For smaller micro samples to 20 microns in size an MCT detector is recommended.

Switching from transmission to reflection on the µMAX is easywith a thumb wheel selection. Reflection sampling area is definedby use of the aperture slide with pre-defined sizes from 40 to 1000microns. Micro reflection analysis of small areas of interest onreflective surfaces is made easy with the PIKE Technologies µMAX.Simply focus and position the sampling stage, select the samplearea with the aperture slide and collect the spectrum. The back-ground spectrum is collected using the same dimension apertureusing the gold surfaced reference slide.

ATR is an excellent sampling option for the µMAX IR microscope.The RotATR™ is a unique, rugged pivot designed germanium ATRproviding easy and precise operation and excellent micro ATR spectra.Focus and select the sample area, rotate the ATR crystal into sample position, make sample contact and collect the IR spectrum.

Micro ATR works exceptionally well with the µMAX IR microscope. The 100 micron flat-tipped micro ATR crystal makesintimate contact with the sample easily achieved, providing highspectral quality as seen in the data above.

The Micro Diamond Cell is an excellent option for use withthe µMAX IR Microscope. Tiny chips or fiber segments can be flattened to obtain excellent transmission spectra.

Cryostat190 – Ultralow Temperature Accessory for Liquid andSolid Transmission Sampling

The Cryostat190 is a temperature controlled transmission accessoryfor the spectroscopic analysis of liquids and solids. Using a liquidnitrogen cryostat in combination with resistive heating the accessory’s temperature range is -190 to 150 °C.

The temperature control system uses a mass flow controllerto precisely meter the liquid nitrogen flow to maintaining steadysub ambient temperatures or to control temperature rampingwith accuracy. The 10 L Dewar provides cooling up to 10 hours,which is convenient for extended time studies and experimentsthat require long-term signal averaging.

Spectroscopic measurements at low temperatures may beperformed to refine the absorbance bands, which are generallysharper and narrower, to reduce sample degradation, and toinvestigate unstable intermediates.

The PIKE Technologies Bolt Press and Hydraulic Die are low-costtools for making KBr pellets for transmission FTIR analysis.

The press and die consist of a stainless steel barrel with twohardened and polished 13 mm rams. The barrels are equippedwith a fitting which allows evacuation of air while the pellet isformed. For the Bolt Press, the pressure is applied to the sampleby tightening the bolts against each other with standard 15/16"wrenches – included. For the Hydraulic Die the pressure isapplied to the sample by placing it in a hydraulic press – up to10,000 psi. Once a clear pellet is formed, the rams are removedand the sample is analyzed while still in the barrel (barrel is placeddirectly in the beam using the Press Holder with a standard 2" x 3" slide mount). Both accessories form a 13 mm pellet.

The PIKE Technologies Bolt Press and Hydraulic Die are bothequipped with a holder for your FTIR sample compartment.

Hand Press – For Making Smaller Pellets

The PIKE Technologies Hand Press is an ideal solution for labora-tories that require only occasional preparation of KBr pellets andcannot justify the expense of a hydraulic press.

The Hand Press is an efficient, reliable and inexpensive toolwhich simplifies making small pellets. It consists of a long stainlesssteel barrel and movable stage controlled by a lever capable ofapplying high pressure to the KBr/powder mixture. The HandPress comes complete with three standard die sets (7, 3 and 1 mm).The pellet preparation involves loading of the powdered sampleinto the die chamber, placement of the upper anvil in the press andapplication of hand pressure to the lever (this is sufficient to provideclear, high quality KBr disks). The Die Collar with the formed pelletis removed from the press and in most cases it can be placeddirectly in the beam of the spectrometer for analysis. The HandPress is equipped with a platen position dial for adjustment ofthe force applied to the die and reproducible sample preparation.

Evacuable Pellet Press – For Preparation of High Quality Pellets

The PIKE Technologies Evacuable Pellet Press is the preferredaccessory for making pellets for FTIR analysis. Preparation of KBr pellets with a 13 mm die and a hydraulic press is the mostpopular method used for generation of samples for transmissionmeasurements. It is also required by a number of standardizedprocedures, including some USLP and ASTM methods. The advantagesof this approach include the generation of high quality pellets,reproducibility, and the ability to deal with relatively difficult samples, thanks to a wide range of pressures available. The PIKEEvacuable KBr Die Kit features the following components: a stainlesssteel base with vacuum outlet, the main die block with a 13 mmcylinder, two anvils and a plunger. All components are made ofhardened stainless steel and surfaces that come in contact withthe sample are highly polished. Two O-rings are used to seal thebase/die assembly and the plunger.

Pellet preparation involves placement of the anvil in the diechamber and covering it up with the pre-measured amount ofKBr/sample mix.

The sample is covered with the second anvil and theplunger is inserted into thechamber. The entire assemblyis placed in a hydraulic pressand compressed (a vacuumline can be connected to thebase to remove moisture fromthe sample). For analysis, theformed pellet is ejected fromthe die with an extractor andmounted onto a standard 2" x 3" sample holder.

The PIKE TechnologiesEvacuable Pellet Press comescomplete with anvils and vacuum connector.

Heated Platens Accessory – For Making Thin Films of PolymericSamples for Transmission FTIR Analysis

The PIKE Heated Platens Accessory is designed to efficiently make thin films of polymer materials for infrared transmissionspectroscopy. Thin films are easily made from pellets or otherplastic sample forms.

Typically a 2–5 milligram portion of polymer is cut from thepellet or other plastic sample and placed between aluminumdisks within the heated base of the platens. The temperature ofthe platens is chosen to match the melting point of the polymermaterial. The top plate of the heated platens accessory is placedover the assembly and the unit is placed into the hydraulic press.A low force (2 tons) is generally applied to the sample in the heatedplatens accessory to make excellent films.

The PIKE Heated Platens Accessory includes insulating disksto maintain the desired temperature set point when making thinpolymer films. The insulating disks improve the quality of thinfilms, by making them more IR transmissive and thereby improving

the quality of the spectra produced from the pressed films. This isachieved by holding the temperature at the melting point of thepolymer during the film making process. Flattening the polymerbelow its melting point produces a cloudy film. Pressing the polymer film when it is above its melting point may cause polymer degradation.

The PIKE Heated Platens Accessory is compatible with the PIKECrushIR™ Hydraulic Press and other hydraulic presses (please inquire).

ShakIR and Super ShakIR –For Optimized Sample Grinding

ShakIR accessories provide a fast and simple method of mixingand grinding samples for diffuse reflectance sampling and inpreparation for making KBr pellets. A small amount of sampleand the IR transparent diluent (typically KBr) are simply scoopedinto a vial with mixing ball. The accessory thoroughly mixes andpulverizes the sample within seconds.

The standard ShakIR uses reciprocating motion of the vialholder that follows a “figure 8” path. The vial is swung through a5 degree arc at high RPMs, causing the ball to strike the end ofthe vial, which is sufficient to grind most materials into a powder.

The accessory provides electronic control for precise andreproducible setting of grinding time up to 95 seconds. The protective shield provides security to grinder operation. TheShakIR construction and weight offer long-term, reliable operation and minimized vibration and noise. The ShakIR features a small footprint. The base is 14.4 cm x 17.2 cm with aheight of 27.3 cm.

The Super ShakIR also uses “figure 8” reciprocating motionfor sample grinding, plus it offers more control over grindingspeed and time intervals – specifically, 6 RPM levels, from 2500 to4600 are available and samples can be ground from 5 to 60 seconds.This provides a wide range of settings for bringing even very difficult samples to fine powder consistency quickly.

The Super ShakIR features a heavy duty metal body with achemically resistant stainless steel grinding chamber. The unitoperates quietly, regardless of RPM settings. The grinding chamberis protected by the door with a viewing window. For safety, theaccessory will not operate until the door is fully closed. The SuperShakIR footprint is 17.5 cm x 28 cm and its height is 16 cm.

Long-Path Gas Cells – For Measurement of Low Concentration Vapor Components

PIKE Technologies offers several Long-Path Gas Cells for analysisof trace components in gas samples – typical concentrations mayrange from the ppm to ppb levels. The Long-Path Cells feature afolded path design providing an extended pathlength within acompact dimension. The FTIR beam enters the cell through an IRtransparent window and reflects a number of times between theaccessory mirrors before exiting to the detector. The number ofreflections is determined by the optical configuration of the celland may be selected as a permanently aligned version or a user-adjustable version (variable-path cells). Typical applicationsof the long-path gas cells include air pollution studies, gas puritydeterminations, monitoring of industrial processes, exhaust gasanalysis and many others.

All Long-Path Gas Cells are manufactured by PIKE Technologies.The fixed and variable long-path gas cell assemblies have either a nickel-coated aluminum cell or a heavy-wall borosilicate glasscell. Gas cells may be operated under vacuum or pressure. Thetop of the cell is enclosed by the valve/gauge assembly with stainless steel ¼" Swagelok valves. Tube compression fittings areavailable upon request.

For optimal performance the mirrors have been diamondturned and coated with the highest quality gold for maximumreflectivity and inertness. The accessory mirrors are mounted permanently with mechanical mirror mounts to eliminate out-gassing chemicals that may occur when using cements tosecure the mirrors. Windows are easily replaceable and differentwindow materials are available.

The anodized aluminum base includes spectrometer-specifictransfer optics allowing placement of the accessory in the FTIRsample compartment. As a standard feature, the optical base isfully purgeable allowing for the elimination of atmospheric watervapor and CO2 interference in the spectrum.

The construction and main components of the variable-pathgas cells are identical with those described above, with an exceptionof the internal mirror assembly. The cell has an adjustable mirrorlocated at the top of the enclosure (position controlled with a micrometer) and one stationary mirror. Adjust-ments to the mirror position allow selection of different pathlengths supported by the cell. The variable-path gas cell has an integrated laser that enables the determinationof the pathlength by counting the number of laser reflections on the bottom mirror.

Some gas measurement applications require temperature control for higher precision or to prevent condensation of specific components. PIKE Technologies offers heated versions of our fixed- and variable-path gas cells up to 200 °C. For high temperature accuracy, the temperature sensor has been imbedded inside the gas cell as opposed to mounted on the exterior of the cell. Contact PIKE Technologies on how to upgrade an existing cell to the heated version.

Custom pathlengths and cell materials are available. Contact PIKE Technologies for special orders.

Transmission Sampling Techniques – Theory and ApplicationsFTIR sampling by transmission is a very popular method for collection of infrared spectra. Its use is easy to explain – themethods are intuitive and do not require sophisticated samplingaccessories. In many cases, the sample can be placed directly intothe path of the infrared beam (with the help of sample holder) andscanned. Further benefits of transmission sampling techniquesinclude compatibility with automated sampling and microsamplingtechniques such as IR Microscopy.

Transmission techniques are well documented and have beensuccessfully used for many years. A large number of spectrallibraries contain transmission spectra and are often used as references for the purpose of qualitative analysis. Transmissiontechniques offer many advantages and should be used wheneverpossible, unless reliable sample preparation becomes too difficult,too time consuming or impossible. Transmission is also widelyused for quantitative applications, as significant numbers of basicmeasurements adhere to the Beer-Lambert law. The law providesa mathematical relationship between the infrared radiationabsorbed by the sample and the sample concentration:

A = a • b • c

Where: A = absorbance a = absorptivity b = pathlength c = sample concentration

The Beer-Lambert law states that absorbance is linearly proportional to sample concentration (with sample pathlengthand absorptivity constant). The actual measurements are generatedin percent transmittance (which is not a linear function of con-centration), however, they can be converted in real time toabsorbance by all modern FTIR instrumentation. As mentionedbefore, transmission measurements are intuitive and simple.However, the majority of samples are too thick to be measureddirectly and they have to be processed in some way before meaningful data can be collected. Some of the sample preparationtechniques are time consuming and can be destructive. Liquidsand pastes are generally the easiest samples to run. A large number of liquid cells and windows are available for liquid meas-urements. Solid samples (with the exception of thin films) requiresample preparation – making a pellet (typically potassium bromide –KBr) or a mull. Gas samples require a suitable gas cell with apathlength sufficient to detect the desired component.

Sample Preparation and Analysis

LiquidsMost liquids and dissolved solids are easy to measure by transmission.Viscous liquids or pastes can be simply pressed between 2 IRtransparent windows and measured by FTIR.

Thin liquids or samples in solvent may be best run by using ademountable liquid cell or a sealed cell, consisting of two windowswith a precision spacer in-between. One of the windows has twodrilled holes for the introduction and evacuation of the sample. A large number of cell options are available – these include permanently sealed cells and demountable cells with different window materials and a wide selection of spacers.

The pathlength of liquid cells can be easily measured withyour FTIR spectrometer. Just place the empty cell into the FTIRand collect its spectrum. The frequency of the sine wave spectrum(produced by back reflection within the cell) provides the pathlength using the following equation;

P = (10 • N) / (2 • ∆ cm-1)

Where:

P = pathlength of cell in mmN = number of fringes within ∆ cm-1

∆ cm-1 = wavenumber range of fringe count

It is very important to select compatible IR transparent windowsfor your liquid samples. Please refer to the chart on the last pageof this note to select your windows. If you still have questions,please call us.

SolidsThe easiest to analyze are film and polymer samples less than200 micrometers thick (ideal thickness for the major componentof a polymer film is about 20 microns). These samples can besimply placed into a sample holder and immediately scanned.

The thickness of the polymer film can be calculated from thefringe pattern in the spectrum using the following equation;

T = (10000 • N) / (2 • n • ∆ cm-1)

Where:

T = thickness of polymer film in micronsN = number of fringes within ∆ cm-1

∆ cm-1 = wavenumber range of fringe countn = refractive index of polymer

The same procedure can be used for samples which can besliced and pressed to an appropriate thickness – especially for IRmicrosampling.

For IR microsampling, one can place a small sliced sampleinto a sample compression cell and apply pressure to hold thesample and to thin it to a useable thickness – as shown in the following spectral data.

However, the majority of solid materials must be preparedbefore their infrared spectra can be collected. In many cases sample preparation involves grinding of the sample and mixing itwith an IR transparent material such as KBr and then pressing apellet. While this method of solids analysis is time consuming, itproduces an excellent result.

Solid Sample Preparation TipsThe best method for preparation of solid samples involves mixingthe sample (about 5% by weight) with an IR transparent material(typically KBr) and pressing a pellet. The mixing is best done withthe ShakIR accessory which produces a fully mixed and pulverizedsample in about 30 seconds. The mixing can also be done with amortar and pestle – but not as well. Generation of a pellet involvespressing the prepared mixture with a hydraulic or hand press intoa hard disk. The pellet, ideally 0.5 to 1 mm thick is then placed ina transmission holder and scanned. Typically, the pellet techniqueprovides good quality spectra with a wide spectral range and nointerfering absorbance bands.

Samples which do not grind well and/or are affected by solvents and mulling agents can be analyzed with high pressuretechniques. Typical samples include fibers and paint chips. Theaccessory used for such applications utilizes two diamond anvils.Difficult samples are placed between the diamonds and crushed,compressed and flattened to the thickness necessary to obtaingood quality FTIR spectra. Diamond cells are transparent to IRradiation except in the region of 2400 cm-1 to 1700 cm-1. The highpressure diamond cells require the use of a beam condenser oran infrared microscope.

An alternate method for analysis of solid materials involvesmaking a mull. Mulls are sample suspensions in Nujol (refinedmineral oil) or Fluorolube (perfluorohydrocarbon). The process is based upon mixing 1 to 2 drops of the mulling agent with aground sample until a uniform paste is formed. The paste istransferred onto a KBr or other IR transparent disk, placed in the sample compartment of the spectrometer and scanned. Theadvantage of this technique is that it is a relatively quick and simple procedure; disadvantages include interference frommulling agent absorption bands. (Both Nujol and Fluorolube havecharacteristic spectral features and in most cases have to be usedas a pair in order to generate a complete mid IR spectrum. Nujolis used below 1330 cm-1, Fluorolube above 1330 cm-1).

GasesAnalysis of gas samples is a unique form of transmission samplingby FTIR as the identified sample does not need to be of purecomposition. At high spectral resolution, most gas mixtures canbe identified and quantified since absorbance bands can beselected within the spectrum, which are resolved and distinctfrom other components within the sample.

Simple demountable cells (50 mm to 100 mm) are recom-mended for samples in a 1–10% by weight concentration range.

For highly dilute samples (ppm to ppb concentrations), long-path cells are required. The long-path cell reflects the IR beamseveral times through the sample using a set of mirrors positionedon the opposite ends of the cell, producing a pathlength to 10 to30 meters – or more. It is important to select window materialscompatible with the investigated sample. Gas sampling accessoriescan be fitted with different windows to accommodate the physicaland chemical characteristics of the measured gas. Special designsfor high pressure and temperature controlled experiments arealso available.

SummaryTransmission sampling by FTIR provides an excellent means forsample identification and quantification of sample components.Most samples measured by transmission techniques require some sample preparation, however, the quality of the results and amenability to automation and microsampling offer significant advantages.

Vertical Wafer Accessory – For Analysis of Semiconductor Wafers

PIKE Technologies offers the Vertical Wafer Accessory for analysisof semiconductor wafers. The Vertical Wafer Accessory is an in-compartment tool for transmission analysis of semiconductorwafers for Carbon, Oxygen and BPSG. The accessory accommodateswafers up to 6 inches (150 mm) in diameter. Wafers are located ina demountable ring. Dimensional tolerances conform to SEMIstandards. Delrin (hard polymer) mounting clips eliminate contactbetween the wafer and metal surfaces during the analysis. The clipmechanism facilitates convenient and repeatable wafer placement.

The wafer support ring may be rotated through 360° andtranslated laterally through a distance of over 3" (75 mm) to produce an R-theta motion covering the entire surface of thewafer. The ring may be rotated and translated manually or auto-matically under stepper motor control using PIKE TechnologiesAutoPRO software. A scale is provided for each motion, providingverification of sample position.

The automated system incorporates two precision steppermotors for rotation and translation of the plate. The motors aredriven by the Motion Control Unit connected to a PC. The operationis managed by PIKE AutoPRO software which provides full userprogrammability and an easy to learn “point-and-click” environ-ment. Polar or Cartesian (X, Y) coordinates may also be used todefine test points. The AutoPRO software allows complex testsequences to be setup, stored as methods and implemented withfull flexibility. The Motion Control Unit features a smart powersupply and operates at 85–265 VAC, 47–63 Hz.

The PIKE Technologies Vertical Wafer Accessory requires minimum 3.5" beam height FTIR spectrometers. Please contact usfor more product details.

MappIR and MAP300 – For Automated Analysis of Semiconductor Wafers

PIKE Technologies offers fully automated accessories for the analysisof semiconductor wafers. Our MappIR and MAP300 accessoriesprovide for analysis of EPI, BPSG, Oxygen and Carbon in wafersizes ranging from 2 to 12 inches (50 to 300 mm).

The MappIR and MAP300 have been developed to providethe semiconductor industry with reasonably priced, automatedtools for research and quality control of silicon wafers. TheMappIR was developed for the analysis of 8 inch (200 mm) andsmaller semiconductor wafers.

The MAP300 is a larger version of this original design and it iscapable of handling the newer 12 inch (300 mm) wafer formats. Theoperation, electronics and software are identical for both systems.

The MappIR and MAP300 accessories mount in the samplecompartment of the FTIR spectrometer. Semiconductor wafers are held in place by spring-loaded Delrin retaining clips and are never in contact with the aluminum stage of the accessory. A standard size slot for a vacuum or mechanical wand is providedfor ease of wafer handling. Individual wafers are rotated and/ortranslated by stepper motors in a sequence pre-programmed bythe system operator.

To minimize interferences of water vapor and carbon dioxidewith infrared measurements, the optical path of the accessories isequipped with purging lines and can be purged with dry air ornitrogen. To eliminate exposure to atmospheric interferences, apurge box providing full enclosure of the sampling area is offeredas an option.

The accessories are controlled by AutoPRO software whichprovides a simple user interface for multiple point wafer analysis(mapping). Up to 320 points with 8 mm beam and 5 mm edgeexclusion can be measured on a 12 inch wafer. The software provides ample flexibility in setting up various experiments.

The following are advantages of the AutoPRO package:

• Graphical and intelligent user interface for setting-up mapping patterns

• Selection of wafer size, IR beam diameter, and edge exclusion

• Operator selectable or pre-defined multiple point maps

• Polar and/or Cartesian coordinates options

• Real-time display of the experiment status

• Ability to save and recall various experimental patterns

• Flexible, COM enabled interface

• KLA and CSV file importer

Data collection and processing is provided by the spectrometersoftware. A number of FTIR manufacturers offer dedicated packageswhich fully integrate the accessory with the spectrometer. If suchan option is not available, AutoPRO can be controlled by thespectrometer’s program viamacros. AutoPRO is Windowscompliant and when run sep-arately, it allows configuration,programming and control of the accessory.

The automated wafertesting systems are compatiblewith most commercial FTIRspectrometers and softwarepackages.

TGA/FTIR Accessory – Identification and Quantification of Evolved Gases from Thermogravimetric Analyzer

The PIKE Technologies TGA/FTIR Accessory is designed to be aninterface for evolved gas analysis from a thermogravimetric analyzer(TGA) to your FTIR spectrometer. Evolved gases from the TGA passthrough a heated transfer line into the beam conforming flow cellin the FTIR sample compartment. As these evolved gases travelthrough the flow cell, FTIR spectra are collected and stored forfurther processing. Qualitative and quantitative measurementsare doable from sample masses – typically in the low milligramrange. The PIKE TGA/FTIR Accessory is compatible with most FTIRspectrometers and most TGA instruments.

During the TGA analysis sample mass is lost through a combination of volatilization and degradation of the samplematerial. The heated TGA/FTIR system maintains the vapor stateof the evolved gases throughout the FTIR analysis.

The FTIR spectrometer is set to collect spectra at 10 secondintervals during the evolved gas analysis using the kinetics software package for your FTIR. With this software you can generatereconstructions of total IR response verses time or temperature(Gram-Schmidt) or specific IR band reconstructions to isolatepoints of unique component evolutions. FTIR spectra are extractedfrom the data set and an identification is made by comparingthese unknown spectra to vapor phase spectral libraries.

GC-FTIR Accessory – Combining GC Separation with Identification Power of FTIR

The PIKE Technologies GC-FTIR Accessory is an interface betweenthe GC and the FTIR instruments. When fully installed, the samplepathway from the end of the GC column is diverted to a heated gascell and back to the GC detector through the use of temperaturecontrolled transfer lines. To maximize sensitivity, the light pipe isgold-coated and the accessory includes an on-board MCT detector.

Coupling gas chromatography with infrared spectroscopy provides an effective method of separating compounds as thesample moves through the GC column and identifying these compounds by spectroscopy. GC-FTIR is a preferred method foridentifying isomers, which may be incorrectly identified usingGC/MS. In addition, GC-FTIR may be used as a complementaryanalytical technique to confirm GC/MS results. Typical applica-tions of GC-FTIR include the analysis of drugs, fragrances, andother organic compounds found in mixtures.

PA301 and PA101 – Photoacoustic Accessory for Analysis ofDifficult Samples and Depth Profiling

Photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) overcomes drawbacks that mayoccur with traditional spectroscopic sampling techniques due tothe physical and chemical nature of the sample. PAS is ideal forthe analysis of highly absorbing samples, layered polymers, fibers,and samples with varying surface roughness such as minerals andsoils. The technique is non-destructive. Using PA technologies,Gasera accessories offer high sensitivity, good selectivity and fastresponse time for reliable analysis of gases, liquids, and solidmaterials. A dedicated gas analyzer and a multipurpose analyzerfor solids, semi-solids, liquids, and fibers are available.

High sensitivity is achieved by using a patented cantileverpressure sensor that is over hundred times more sensitive com-pared to a membrane, which is used in conventional techniques.Gasera's patented cantilever-type pressure sensor is designed tosignificantly improve the sensitivity of photoacoustic spectroscopy.An extremely thin cantilever portion moves like a flexible doordue to the pressure variations in the surrounding gas. The move-ment of the free end of the cantilever can be about two orders ofmagnitude greater than the movement of the middle point of thetightened membrane under the same pressure variation. This isbecause the cantilever only bends and does not stretch.

Data collection may be performed in rapid-scan mode optimized at 2.5 kHz or in step-scan mode with or without phasemodulation. In rapid-scan or slow step-scan mode the thermaldiffusion depth, defined as the length to decay 37% (1/e) of theoriginal thermal wave amplitude, increases at longer wavelengths.For experiments performed in step-scan mode with phase modu-lation, the thermal diffusion depth may be linearized, eliminatingthe signal dependency on wavelength. Table 1 and 2 summarizethermal diffusion depths for rapid-scan and step-scan experimentsfor a typical polymer. For optimal performance, Helium purge gasis recommended.

PA101 is a low volume gas analyzer having an internal gasvolume of 30 mL. The absorption is measured directly by applying photoacoustic techniques. This makes the measurementfree of drift. It is the key factor for the unbeatable stability and reliability with-out frequent backgroundmeasurement. Typical low volume applications are headspace analysis, synthesisand decomposition processanalysis, and outgassing ofmaterials measurements.Typical measurement concentration for PAS of the gas phase is in the sub-ppm region.

Semiconductor Applications – FTIR Sampling Techniques OverviewFTIR spectroscopy has established itself as a method of choice inseveral areas of industrial manufacturing. One of them is the qualitycontrol of semiconductor wafers. Here, the FTIR spectrometersare commonly used to measure Phosphosilicate glass (PSG) andBorophosphosilicate glass (BPSG) films, epitaxial film (EPI) thicknessand interstitial oxygen and substitution carbon content.

Addition of boron and phosphorus to silicate glass duringmanufacturing improves the final product uniformity and reducesglass forming temperatures. Borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG)melts 100 degrees lower than Phosphosilicate glass (PSG) andoffers better flow characteristics. To maintain and optimize pro-duction processes, evaluation and verification of doping levels isrequired. FTIR allows simultaneous measurements of boron andphosphorus as well as the thickness of the glass in a quick andnondestructive procedure. The measurements are based on theinterpretation of transmission spectra and quantification of boron,phosphorus and Si-O bands. K-matrix or Partial Least Squares(PLS) methods are used for concentration/thickness calculations.

The epitaxial film (EPI) is a grown crystal layer having thesame crystallographic orientation as the substrate crystal wafer.The epitaxial film differs from the substrate base as it is modifiedwith various additives. Accurate, fast and precise determination ofthe EPI film thickness is important in the manufacturing processsince film thickness and uniformity play a critical role in etchingtime and device yield across the wafer surface. Specularreflectance is used in FTIR measurements of the epitaxial layerthickness. The infrared beam enters the EPI layer, reflects off thesubstrate surface and makes another pass through the film whenexiting. The film thickness calculations are based on one of thefollowing methods:

• Interference measurements – also called Constant AngleReflection Interference Spectroscopy or CARIS. This method uses the interference fringe pattern obtained in the specularreflectance experiment.

• Interferogram subtraction – based on the measurement of the primary and secondary interferogram of the sample andsubtraction of this signal from that of the reference material.

• Second Fourier Transform of spectral response data (CEPSTRUM).This method takes the difference of two spectral response curvesand performs a second Fourier transform which provides signalintensity vs. sample thickness information.

Oxygen and carbon may be introduced to the molten siliconduring the manufacturing process. These impurities can be trappedin the crystal lattice and affect final product characteristics. Forthese reasons, both need to be monitored and quantified. FTIRspectroscopy (transmission measurements) provides excellentmeans to perform this analysis. The application uses the absorptionbands of Si-C and Si-O-Si to calculate concentration levels of substitution carbon and interstitial oxygen. Beer’s law is typicallyused to determine their concentrations.

UV-Vis Polarizers – Manual and Automated Versions

The sample material and sampling configuration dictate theneed for a UV-Vis polarizer. Typical materials that may require apolarizer during sampling are often crystals, films, paints, beamsplitters, coated glass, and anti-reflective, and anti-glare coatings.Additionally, we recommend using a polarizer for specularreflectance sampling at an angle of incidence greater than 15 degrees where the reflectivity becomes polarization dependent.

PIKE Technologies offers Glan-Taylor and Glan-Thompson UV-Vispolarizers. These take advantage of the birefringent properties of UV-quality calcite. An air interface is assembled between tworight angle calcite prisms in the Glan-Taylor polarizer whereas a UV-transparent cement separates the calcite prisms in the Glan-Thompson polarizer. In both styles, the polarized extraordinaryray passes through both prisms and the ordinary ray is internallyreflected and absorbed. The spectral range of these polarizers is250–2300 nm. Due to the natural origin of calcite the achievableminimum wavelength fluctuates from polarizer to polarizer.However, at 250 nm the transmission throughput is no less than 25%.

Each polarizer type has a different field of view where theUV-Vis beam is polarized. The UV Glan-Thompson field of view iswider compared to the Glan-Taylor as shown in the figure.

Enhanced angular resolution of 0.1° is gained with the auto-mated version of the PIKE UV-Vis polarizer. This automated featureis advantageous where highly precise angular settings are requiredand for increasing the measurement simplicity for determining thepolarized orientation of a sample. By evaluating the transmission orreflectance of a sample as a function of the automated polarizerangle at a given wavelength, parallel and perpendicular orientationof the sample relative to the polarizer degree setting may bedetermined. The automated version includes integrated data collection with some commercial UV-Vis spectrophotometer software packages.

Peltier-Controlled Cuvette Holders for UV-Vis Spectrophotometers –Experiments Under Tightly Controlled Temperature Conditions

The new series of PIKE Technologies Peltier accessories includesair- and liquid-cooled cuvette holders, two-channel TemperatureController and optional Liquid Recirculator.

The cuvette holder can be used with single- and dual-beamspectrophotometers (two identical units are required for dual-beamconfiguration) and can be independently driven by the DigitalTemperature Controller. Each cuvette holder features an efficientheat exchange design and variable speed magnetic stirrers. Bothunits use a thermoelectric cooler based on Peltier principle andutilize air or liquid flow for excess heat removal. The temperaturerange for the air-controlled unit is 20 °C to 60 °C. Its cell body ismade from Delrin and an integrated copper insert provides highlyefficient heat transfer.

The cuvette holders are designed to accommodate standardsize 10 mm x 10 mm cuvettes and shorter path cuvettes withappropriate spacers. The holders fit in most makes of UV-Vis spectrophotometers and are available in 8.5 mm and 15 mmbeam height configurations.

The Temperature Controller offered with the Peltier-ControlledCuvette Holders supports two channels. For the single cuvetteholder configuration, the first channel can be used for monitoringand control of the block temperature and the second for moni-toring of the sample temperature (this configuration can be alsoreversed, where the sample temperature is driving the heating/cooling action). For the two holder configuration, a single controllercan be used to control each device independently or two controllerscan be used to control and monitor block and sample temperaturesof each cuvette holder. The Temperature Controller is equippedwith a color touch-screen and features intuitive, menu-driven programming. Single set points orsimple ramping functions can be pre-programmed and performedby this device. Custom PIDparameters can be implementedto modify and fine-tune controllerfunctions. The accessory is equippedwith precision RTDs for reliableand reproducible operation.

PC control is also available for this Peltier system. The digital controller can be connected to the computer via a USBport. PIKE TempPRO software provides functions required foraccessory programing, setting of temperature points, rampingand experiment monitoring.

Reference Standards – For Calibrating FTIR Spectrometers

FTIR spectrometers are highly accurate and reliable measurementtools. Their internal referencing laser (Connes advantage) is agreat leap forward in wavenumber accuracy and repeatability.Still it is often required by regulatory agencies and operating procedures, to calibrate the spectrometer. PIKE Technologiesoffers several new products to assist in this task.

PIKE Technologies offers several versions of polystyrene reference materials for FTIR spectrometer calibration. The 1.5 miland 55 micron thick polystyrene are generally specified for cali-brating wavenumber accuracy. PIKE also offers a NIST traceablepolystyrene version of these products which includes the referencematerial, calibration result for the material and its traceabilitydocumentation.

The Specular Reflectance Standard is a unique material for calibration of your reflectance measurement system. The standard isa specially treated germanium element which only allows reflectionfrom its front surface – thereby providing a reflection value whichcan be calculated relative to Fresnel equations. The SpecularReflectance Standard includes documentation to trace the specularreflectance to published refractive index data.

The Specular Reflectance Standard is compatible with the following PIKE Technologies products; VeeMAX III, 30Spec, 45Specand 10Spec.
