Fingerprint Region
The area of an infrared (IR) spectrum, typically between 600 to 1400 cm-1, where unique absorption patterns can be used to identify specific compounds.
IR Spectrum
A graphical representation of a material’s infrared light absorption at different wavelengths, often used in chemical analysis.
