1 A Flexible, Portable Instrument Platform for FT IR Analysis Series

2 Introduction StandardlaboratoryFT IRspectrometers have many desirable qualities, but are not generally considered portable. Dedicated, portable instruments can provide quality spectra, but may not have the sampling flexibility desirable for various experiments. A new series of FT IR instruments are designed that can be used as dedicated, portable spectrometers, or, can be configured with multiple sampling techniques, thus extending the analysis capability with a minimal footprint. The series of instruments can also be utilized as a basic interferometer engine for user designed experimental stations.
