  • Abstract
    Identification of chemical compounds and their mapping at a 20 ns scale are enabled, by combining FTIR with near-field microscopy. A first application is demonstrated with biominerals and human bone sections. Generally, nano-FTIR yields broad quantitative fingerprint spectra which can directly rely on common IR databases for chemical recognition.
