Quantitative Vibrational Spectrometry in the 21st Century: A Scientometric Evaluation

2005

Abstract The state of the art of research on vibrational spectrometry–based quantitative methodologies was evaluated from the literature compiled in Analytical Abstracts from 1980. Medium and near infrared, Raman spectrometry, and photoacoustic methods of analysis were considered. The evolution of the number of published papers, the distribution of the literature as a function of the different application fields in which the vibrational methods were employed, and a study of the impact on this area of chemometric and automation studies clearly shows that, from the 1990s until now, the importance of vibrational spectrometry in application analysis has grown to reach maturity. This field provi…

Direct determination of Mancozeb by photoacoustic spectrometry

2006

Abstract A solvent free, fast and environmentally friendly photoacoustic-infrared-based methodology (PAS-FTIR) was developed for the determination of Mancozeb in agrochemicals. This methodology was based on the direct measurement of the transmittance spectra of solid samples and a multivariate calibration model to determine the active ingredient concentration. The proposed partial least squares (PLS) model was made using nine standards prepared by mixing different amounts of kaolin and Mancozeb, with concentrations between 5.43 and 88.10% (w/w). A hierarchical cluster analysis was made in order to classify the samples in terms of similarity in the PAS-FTIR spectra. From their spectra differ…

The application of the photoacoustic transmittance oscillations for determining elastic constants in gallium and indium selenides

1996

Transmittance periodic oscillations are observed in GaSe and InSe on excitation with optical pulses. Such oscillations are explained in terms of photoacoustic generation of dilatational waves, which become resonant within the crystal. Spectral analysis of those oscillations in samples of different thickness has led to an accurate determination of the longitudinal acoustic‐wave velocity along the crystallographic axis c.

HIGHLY EXCITED VIBRATIONAL STATES OF CYCLIC MOLECULES INVESTIGATED BY I.C.L.A SPECTROSCOPY WITH PHOTOACOUSTIC DETECTION

1991

The spectra of the fourth and fifth CH stretching overtones of cyclohexene and cyclopentene molecules and of some of their selectively deuterated derivatives have been measured by dye laser intracavity spectroscopy with photoacoustic detection. The intramolecular relaxation of the vibrational energy occurs principally through Fermi resonances with CH2 bending combinations in cyclohexene and through a coupling between the stretching and the ring puckering motions in cyclopentene.
