Abstract
A design of a microspectrophotometric system using a synchrotron radiation (SR) source is described. The system covers a wide spectral range of 50–13000 cm−1, being under construction at the UVSOR BL6B beamline in the Institute for Molecular Science. Preliminary experiments in the mid-infrared region (500–5000 cm−1) have qualitatively confirmed the theoretical calculation that the synchrotron radiation is more intense than a blackbody (T=1200 K) when a microspectrophotomeric technique is applied, which is due to natural collimation and high brilliance of SR source. The SR as an infrared source exhibits its advantage on measuring the spectra of small single crystals especially in the far-infrared region.
