Abstract:
Transmittance and absorbance data in the form of a spectral atlas have been obtained from Fourier transform spectra recorded on a commercial (Bomem DA3) instrument, operated with an external white light source injected through the instrument's `emission' port. The sample was a sealed, evacuated cell containing a small quantity of 130Te. This cell was placed in a ceramic furnace maintained close to 620 °C, with tellurium vapor pressures 8-11 Torr. The data are intended as an aid to spectral calibration in the blue-green to violet region. The data relate to work published in J. Mol. Spectrosc. 384 111,589 (2022).

IR Spectrum
Transmittance is defined as the ratio of the radiant power passing through a sample to that from the radiation's source. Multiplying the transmittance by 100 gives the percent transmittance (%T), which varies between 100% (no absorption) and 0%...
