infrared spectroscopy

In spectroscopy: Infrared instrumentation
fluoride (CaF₂), zinc selenide (ZnSe), cesium iodide (CsI), or potassium bromide (KBr), coated with silicon or germanium are employed. Below 200 cm⁻¹ Mylar films of varying thickness are used to cover narrow portions of the region. Thermal detection of infrared radiation is based on the conversion of a temperature change,…

In radiation measurement: Inorganic scintillators
Thallium-activated cesium iodide [CsI(Tl)] also produces excellent light yield but has two relatively long decay components with decay times of 0.68 and 3.3 microseconds. Its emission spectrum is shifted toward the longer-wavelength end of the visible spectrum and is a better match to the spectral response…
