Definition
In situ infrared (IR) spectroscopy is a spectroscopic method for the infrared spectral range which can be used in defined environments during preparation, modification, function, and reaction or analysis in natural environment. In this contribution especially liquid environments are considered with the focus on the mid-infrared (MIR) spectral range from 2.5 to 16 μm.
Overview
In situ IR spectroscopy is used for various studies from technologically relevant films [1–6] towards cells [7] in liquid environments. The most common in situ IR techniques for characterizations of thin films and surfaces at the solid-liquid interface are attenuated total reflection (ATR), polarization-dependent reflection absorption IR spectroscopy (RAIRS), and infrared spectroscopic ellipsometry (IRSE) [1–6, 8]. These techniques are applied in current research on solid-liquid interfaces of functional films and surfaces as well as cells. Examples are titration, electrochemical etching of silicon...
