反常吸收与高质量的远红外光谱

在水汽含量恒定但相对湿度较大的情况下,远红外光谱仪得不到理想的100%线。这表明过高的水汽含量将会导致反常吸收现象。反常吸收的出现将严重影响远红外光谱的质量。研究了光谱仪内部空气相对湿度和光谱分辨率对反常吸收的影响,发现降低水汽含量和采用适当光谱分辨率可以有效抑制反常吸收现象,对获得高质量的远红外光谱很有益处。在无反常吸收现象发生的实验条件下,采用"湿度中和法"在空气湿度波动的情况下也可以得到理想的100%线,这为快速获得高质量的远红外光谱提供了新测量方法。

Anomalous absorption and a qualified far infrared spectrum

The ideal 100% line could not be obtained when the content of water vapor in the spectrometer is constant but high during the whole procedure of a far-infrared spectrum collection. This result indicates that anomalous absorption phenomenon takes place in high relative humidity atmosphere. In the present paper, the influences of the relative humidity of ambient air and spectral resolution on anomalous absorption were studied. It was found that both decreasing the water vapor content in the spectrometer and adopting low spectral resolution are effective methods to avoid anomalous absorption. Furthermore, the water vapor bands can be eliminated by "dry air and wet air titration" in the fluctuant humidity. This provides us a quick and economic method to obtain a qualified far infrared spectrum conveniently. It should be noticed that the working condition for "dry air and wet air titration" is low relative humidity to prevent water vapor abnormal absorption.
