Agilent Technologies: A Workshop on the Fundamentals and Tips & Tricks of FTIR
This presentation aims to provide a comprehensive introduction to Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR).
The central focus is on the essential principles underlying FTIR, as well as offering valuable insights and practical strategies to optimize its use in both lab and field environments. This session will not only elucidate the theory and mechanics of FTIR but also present effective tips and tricks that aid in enhancing the performance and reliability of FTIR spectrometry.
Presenter: Yanqia Wang, PhD (Application Engineer, Molecular Spectroscopy, Agilent Technologies, Inc.)
Dr. Yanqia Wang started working for Agilent Technologies Inc. as a FTIR application Engineer in 2013, providing pre-&post-sale application support. The products he covers from Bench-top FTIR microscopes to various Mobile FTIR spectrometers. Dr. Wang received his PhD of analytical chemistry from Duke University in 2004, doing dynamic IR spectroscopy research. Then he joined Fitzpatrick Center for Photonics at Duke University, doing Tissue Raman spectrometer instrumentation. Since 2007, Dr. Wang worked for Avery Dennison Corp. as a spectroscopist, providing molecular analytical support to the research & development.
