Online services for your desktop on a pay-as-you-surf principle: ACD/Labs I-Lab
In the final article of this series on new Internet-based services for the chemist/spectroscopist, I will be taking a quick look at the ACD/Labs I-Lab online web-based program range.
Changing scales with Fourier transformation [Lesson 3 of matrix algebra (matrix multiplication)]
In the last column, we showed how we could perform Fourier transformation (FT) of a near-infrared (NIR) spectrum in a few lines of matrix algebra and said that in this column we would use it in a novel way. The task we are going to perform is that of changing scales of spectroscopic (NIR) data. This may be novel, we are not aware that anyone else does it this way, but of course instrument manufacturers sometimes like to be silent about the methods they employ.
More reference spectroscopic data on the Internet! FTIRsearch Nicolet/Galactic Industries new joint venture
A new joint venture between Galactic Industries and Nicolet has further added to the list of innovation in reference spectroscopic data delivery. The internet service running under http://ftiresearch.com was launched on 17 April 2000. With this new service coming on-line, the spectroscopist must now regard the year 2000 as one of the best for the introduction of new strategies and options for reference database access and service ever!
The TDeious way of doing Fourier transformation (Lesson 2 of matrix algebra)
At the end of the last column we promised that this time we would show how matrix algebra can be used for real computational tasks. The chosen task is Fourier transformation (FT) of a near infrared (NIR) spectrum. Those who know Tony Davies will not be surprised at this choice of subject but in the third lesson the reason for wanting to do the obvious will become apparent.
