What Are the Advantages of Using ATR for Nanomaterials?
One of the primary advantages of ATR in analyzing nanostructures is the minimal sample preparation required. Since the technique does not demand extensive sample alteration, the intrinsic properties of the nanomaterials remain intact. Additionally, ATR can be used to study both solid and liquid samples, providing versatility in research applications. Its ability to work with small sample sizes is particularly beneficial in nanotechnology, where material availability can sometimes be limited.
