…divided into three regions: the near infrared (4,000–12,500 inverse centimetres [cm−1]), the mid-infrared (400–4,000 cm−1), and the far infrared (10–400 cm−1). With the development of Fourier-transform spectrometers, this distinction of areas has blurred and the more sophisticated instruments can cover from 10 to 25,000 cm−1 by an interchange of source,…
