RESEARCH IN THE FIELD OF HIGH RESOLUTION INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY.

Abstract

Spectroscopic apparatus capable of measuring laboratory absorption spectra at medium infrared wavelengths with a resolution of .08 1/cm and a precision of .005 1/cm was developed. A new double pass system and two prism echelle spectrometers, one a vacuum instrument are described. A computation and quantitative measurement of the radiant power transmitted by the spectrometer was made. These instruments were used to investigate the Fermi Resonance, (L/L = 2) resonance and other phenomena in several isotopic nitrous oxides by a study of the spectra in the 8 and 17 micron regions.
