An attenuated total reflection (ATR) instrument for the observation of angle- and frequency-scanned ATR spectra has been constructed. Light characterized by various wave vectors and dispersed into a spectrum has been detected by a charge coupled device camera after reflection from a rotating mirror and a diffraction grating. Two elliptic mirrors and a prism-sample unit have been set between the rotating mirror and the diffraction grating for the purpose of controlling the light path. The images obtained have been analyzed by a digital image processing system so that angle-scanned ATR signals are obtained for various wavelengths (500–800 nm). The time required to acquire one image has been 0.7 s in the present system. The dependence of the dielectric constant of a Ag film on wavelength is given here as an example measured by our system.

Simplified attenuated total reflection apparatus

Abstract: We offer a version of the Kretschmann configuration of an attenuated total reflection measurement in which there is only one rotating element. Significant simplifications in construction and operation are thereby attained.
