ABSTRACT:
A double-beam spectrophotometer for spectral analysis of a sample in the infrared region is provided in which to eliminate errors in measurement of the absorbance of the sample caused by undesired thermal radiation from the sample itself, first and second sectors are used for division and recombination of beam paths and coordinated such that a detector which receives a beam along the combined beam path produces output signals consisting of components having a frequency f associated with the cycle of operation of the sectors and components having a frequency 2f, those components having frequencies f and 2f are independently derived out of the detector output signals, and the ratio of the components is computed, thereby obtaining the ratio of intensity of sample beam to reference beam independent of the undesired thermal radiation.
