Infrared Spectral Interpretation, In The Beginning I: The Meaning of Peak Positions, Heights, and Widths

Abstract

I have been writing this column for almost 10 years, and we have reached a watershed moment. We have covered what I call the beginning and intermediate topics. However, before we venture off into advanced topics, a review is in order. I will spend the next four columns summarizing what we have learned so far so that the advanced topics will make more sense.
