FTIR Spectrometer

Instrument types

One of the best Fourier transform spectrometers in the world, known for high stability of the interferometer and state of the art scanning mechanism. Capable of operation both in continuous and step scanning regimes. This instrument is equipped with a complete set of optics and detectors for broad band operation throughout IR and THz ranges. Cryogenic detectors with record high sensitivity enable measurements of weak signals, including of samples at low temperatures mounted in the optical cryostat. Very flexible design makes possible a broad range of experimental setups, including spectral characterization of external sources of radiation.

Access Procedure: 
Campus users contact facility for training.
 
Non-UC use of the below labs is governed by these procedures:
  1. Contact the Lab Manager to ensure the equipment/lab is available for your schedule.
  2. Contact Calli Price, Procurement Services Manager, at contracts@bfs.ucsb.edu (link sends e-mail)  and copy Rita Makogon, ITST Manager, at rita@itst.ucsb.edu to complete the required Agreement, individual waivers, insurance, and lab safety training requirements.
  3. Once all documents are approved and training is complete, users will be connected with the appropriate Lab Manager for department/equipment-specific training and Lab access.
