Specular reflectance is commonly used for the analysis of both organic and inorganic samples having large, flat, reflective surfaces. Reflection-absorption can occur when one of the above criteria is compromised and the sample has a reflective substrate present just below the surface. This type of analysis is commonly used for metallic surfaces, silicon wafers, thin films on reflective substrates, and laminated materials on metals.

Ideal of easy and intuitive analysis of coatings on reflective surfaces

All-reflective optical design simplifies surface analysis of thin coatings

Precise grazing incidence analysis of sub-micron films on metallic substrate

For routine and trustworthy single-reflection ATR spectroscopy

For analysis of small samples or isolating areas of interest on larger samples
