Infrared (IR) #spectroscopy is a powerful technique that allows to obtain information about the chemical structure of a variety of substances by utilizing infrared electromagnetic radiation. In this science video we will discuss the basics of this technique with the help of 3D animations and also perform a practical demonstration, where we study a Teflon substrate with ATR technique. The video was made by Captain Corrosion OÜ in collaboration with Uno Mäeorg (Associate Professor in Organic Chemistry, Institute of Chemistry, University of Tartu).

Educators can download some of the animations used in the video from our online library to enhance their courses.
