Wave Number Extension
The working range of any JASCO FT-IR can be extended to cover Near to Far-IR applications by switching various optical components, i.e., light source, beam splitters, and detector.

Rapid Scan
The Rapid Scan function is optional for the FT/IR-4100, FT/IR-4200, FT/IR-6100, and FT/IR-6200 and provided as a standard feature of the FT/IR-6300. The Rapid Scan system enables the instrument to perform up to 20 scans per second for the FT/IR-6100/6200/6300 and 10 scans per second for the FT/IR-4100/4200 providing real-time analysis of reaction kinetics.

Step Scan (FT-IR-6000 Series only)
Step Scan FT-IR spectroscopy offers the capability to obtain rapid time-resolved infrared measurements. This technique covers the entire mid-IR region allowing simultaneous measurement at all frequencies while maintaining the high throughput and multiplex advantages of FT-IR. The time-resolved Step Scan FT-IR technique involves displacing the moveable mirror of the interferometer in a step-wise manner. Using the Step Scan technique it is possible to monitor the progress of very fast and reproducible events.

Microscope/IR Imaging
JASCO offers two infrared microscope models which can be easily interfaced to any FT/IR-4000 or FT/IR-6000 instrument. When used with the FT/IR-6000 the IMV-4000 multi-channel infrared microscope offers advanced capability for applications such as time-resolved imaging.

IQ Accessory Recognition
IQ Accessory Recognition automatically recognizes the sampling accessory when inserted into the instrument sample compartment, using the previously declared instrument parameters for spectral data acquisition. The IQ System can be programmed for any commercially available sampling accessory.

Dedicated Accessories and Multi-purpose Configurations
The dedicated VIR accessories allow quick interfacing between multiple FT-IR techniques including the Smart-Tech accessory developed specifically for forensic drug investigations. Choose from the accessories below or use the MPS to interface with any commercial FT-IR accessory.

Fiber-optic measurement system

Fiber-optic accessories allow on-line monitoring of reaction vessels or product manufacturing systems. Using NIR wavelengths, remote sampling is possible using fiber-optic lengths from 1 to 50 meters. Fiber-optic accessories enable the non-destructive analysis of components in industrial products such as foods, pharmaceuticals, and chemical mixtures without sample preparation. A variety of fiber-optic accessory configurations include ATR, transmission, diffuse reflection or specular reflection probes.

Gas measurement system

The short optical path of the VIR series greatly reduces the interference of water vapor and carbon dioxide. This allows trace analysis of impurities in high-purity gases such as those used for semiconductor manufacturing.

Powder measurement system

The patented Smart-Tech™ diffuse reflectance accessory ensures easy analysis of solids and powders without dilution in KBr. Unskilled operators can get excellent results with little or no sample preparation.

Multi-purpose sample chamber

The MPS-9100 multi-purpose sample chamber allows easy interfacing to standard FT-IR accessories including transmission cells, ATR, DRIFTS, specular and grazing angle reflectance accessories. The MPS offers the user the added benefits of JASCO’s IQ accessory recognition and Quick-Start™ functions that are already incorporated in other JASCO FT-IR instruments.
