Relative Specular Reflectance Measurement
With relative specular reflectance measurement, the reflectance is calculated from the strength ratio after comparing the light reflected from the reference sample with the light reflected from the measurement sample. As shown in the figure, the reflectance of the reference sample is taken to be 100%, and the reflectance of the sample with respect to this reference sample is measured. This method is often applied to the examination of semiconductors, optical materials and multi-layer films.

Shimadzu IR 70th years Anniversary
This year we celebrate 70 years of Shimadzu IR.
We launched our double-beam recording infrared spectrophotometer in 1956.In 1984, we introduced our first Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrophotometer,
and in 2017, we launched a compact, high-performance FTIR system.
We will continue to evolve proactively,responding to our customers’ analytical challenges and expectations and helping to solve current and future societal issues. -
