FAR INFRARED INTERFEROMETRIC SPECTROSCOPY

Abstract

Research concerning the first practical application of Fourier transformation used to obtain high resolution spectroscopic information from two-beam interferometric observations is summarized. This procedure is applied in the far infrared by a lamellar grating interferometer. The procedures have been used to determine the spectra of gases and solids. A quantitative explanation of interference effects that produce the iridescence of crystals of KClO3 was developed. (Author)
