A description of visible Fourier transform photoacoustic spectroscopy (PAS) has been published in two places. Application of PAS to a zirconium phosphate inorganic system has also been described. The use of visible synchrotron radiation in quantitative high frequency PAS has been attempted, and a theoretical modeling of such experiments is nearing completion. A Nicolet FTIR spectrometer is being used to perform mid-infrared PA spectroscopy on carbon samples with a view to determining the best means of ratioing out variations with wavelength in infrared source intensity.
