Light-scattering in absorption spectra: a literature survey of examples and corrections
Masahiko Taniguchi,

Abstract:Absorption spectroscopy is a simple yet robust method for qualitative and quantitative analysis. The technique is most commonly applied for molecules in solution that absorb light in the ultraviolet (UV), visible (Vis), and/or near-infrared (NIR) spectral region. The presence of the particles of size comparable to or greater than the wavelength of light can cause scattering. The contribution from light scattering can overwhelm intrinsic absorption especially in the shorter wavelength, UV regions, which impedes… Show more
