[6]. ABSTRACT: The influence of different useful recording parameters in Fourier transform infrared spectra, on the signal-to-noise ratio is considered. We particularly studied the evolution of the signal to noise ratio with the spectral resolution, the transmission of different samples, the intensity of the background and the number of scans. This will allow an optimal extraction of spectral i...
