E. Nodland et al., INFLUENCE AND CORRECTION OF PEAK SHIFT AND BAND BROADENING OBSERVED BY RANK ANALYSIS ON VIBRATIONAL BANDS FROM VARIABLE-TEMPERATURE MEASUREMENTS, Vibrational spectroscopy, 10(2), 1996, pp. 105-123
Variable-temperature infrared (IR) spectra of cyclohexane and IR and R
aman spectra of chlorocyclohexane have been investigated by graphic ei
genvalue analysis. Thermal effects known as peak shift and band broade
ning combined with heteroscedastic noise in vibrational bands are foun
d to have severe influence on the interpretation of the outcome of ran
k analysis. Methods for correction of frequency shifts and band broade
ning in the spectral profiles due to temperature variation are develop
ed and tested.
