Testing the radiometric accuracy of Fourier transform infrared transmittance measurements

Abstract: We have investigated the ordinate scale accuracy of ambient temperature transmittance measurements made with a Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrophotometer over the wavelength range of 2-10 mum. Two approaches are used: (1) measurements of Si wafers whose index of refraction are well known from 2 to 5 mum, in which case the FT-IR result is compared with calculated values; (2) comparison of FT-IR and laser transmittance measurements at 3.39 and 10.6 mum on nominally neutral-density filters that are free… Show more

“…The resultant radiation beam consists of specular (regular) components and diffuse components of the reflection and transmission. The diffuse components can cause that the measured spectra depend on the geometry of the collection optics of the detector system 17 . The radiation beam follows geometrical laws of optics only in the ideal case when no diffusion arises and results in a pure regular reflection and transmission.…”

“…Semi-circular half-blocks are inserted near the input parabolic and output ellipsoidal mirrors in the sample compartment in order to block inter-reflections among the detector, sample, and interferometer, which are a potentially large source of error in FT-IR transmittance measurements. 4 The filter wheel holding the blocking filters is tilted by a sufficient angle (8° in the case of the 174 sample compartment beam geometry of the Bomem DA3) to prevent inter-reflections involving the blocking filter.…”
