About this ebook
This book provides practical
information on the use of infrared (IR) spectroscopy for the analysis of
materials found in cultural objects. Designed for scientists and students in
the fields of archaeology, art conservation, microscopy, forensics, chemistry,
and optics, the book discusses techniques for examining the microscopic amounts
of complex, aged components in objects such as paintings, sculptures, and
archaeological fragments.
Chapters include the history of infrared spectroscopy, the basic parameters of
infrared absorption theory, IR instrumentation, analysis methods, sample
collection and preparation, and spectra interpretation. The authors cite
several case studies, such as examinations of Chumash Indian paints and the
Dead Sea Scrolls.
