Our Bruker Vertex 80v FT-IR spectrometer is a high-end bench-top Fourier-Transform Infrared Spectrometer. The instrument is equipped with multiple beamsplitters (automatic exchanger) to cover a broad spectral range from the near infrared to the far infrared. The instrument can be used under a nitrogen atmosphere (direct supply, no gas bottles required) and in the evacuated state. A selection of detectors isavailable, such as a broadband DLaTGS detector, MCT detectors (mid infrared), and a liquid helium (4.2 K) cooled Si-bolometer (far infrared/THz). Depending on the measurement, the light source can be switched between a Globar or a Hg–arc lamp. Two multi-purpose external sample chambers are attached, offering high flexibility in experimental design which is especially useful for experiments that require additional space.

Time-resolved experiments:
The instrument is equipped with step-scan, rapid-scan and interleaved TRS options. In that way, it is possible to acquire transient signals, e. g. for kinetic studies. In step-scan mode, the instrument can achieve a temporal resolution down to 2.5 ns. In rapid-scan mode (spe

Available compatible accessories:

Compatible stopped-flow apparatus (KinetaDrive 3, TgK).

Temperature-controlled transmission cell with synthetic diamond (CVD) windows for ultra-broadband transmission from visisble to far infrared (THz).
