Vibrational Spectroscopies

The major spectroscopic techniques for use in adhesive bonding technology that are based on vibrational principles are several forms of infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and the more recent technique HREELS, the vibrational version of EELS used in electron microscopes. These techniques will be discussed in this chapter and some recent develop­ments and applications of the techniques in adhesion studies will be given. Raman and IR

spectroscopies are optical techniques and therefore they generally do not require a UHV requirement, which is a great advantage. Molecules adsorbed at surfaces or at interfaces can be observed in situ, without the need to destroy the sample. HREELS can also be used to study interfaces in situ, but does require an UHV environment, because excitation is performed by means of a low-energy electron source.
