Pure C3H6O (1) Ice at 100 K

Description
Sample Type Ice
Components C3H6O
Ratio 1
Substrate CsI
Reference Temperature 100 K
Wavenumber (cm⁻¹) 499.963 - 4000.068
Wavelength (µm) 2.5 - 20.001

Crystalline propanal (C3H6O) ice deposited at 100 K onto a cesium iodide (CsI) substrate, and held at 100 K during spectroscopic measurements.

The real (n) and imaginary (k) parts of the complex index of refraction were determined using optical measurements done at a temperature of 100 K, by infrared transmission spectroscopy from 4000 to 500 cm⁻¹ with a resolution of 1 cm⁻¹.
