Abstract
The theory and practice of diffuse reflectance spectroscopy in the spectral range from 50,000 cm-1 to 5,000 cm-1 (UV-vis-near IR) are described. The Kubelka-Munk equation is derived and the experimental technique required for diffuse reflectance work is discussed. Application to non-metallic solids is illustrated first with reference to spectra arising from d-d transitions and then with regard to charge-transfer spectra. Particular attention is given to reflectance studies of surface properties and to measurements in the presence of gases. The UV-vis spectra of adsorbed molecules are treated with special reference to the spectra of chemisorbed species formed by reactions at the surfaces of acidic and basic oxide catalysts.
