DESCRIPTION |
The fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra for this project were obtained by the Center for
Planetary Exploration at Stony Brook University using a Nicolet iN10MX FTIR microscope.
Micro-FTIR hyperspectral maps of thin sections were acquired using a liquid nitrogen-cooled
HgCdTe (MCT) detector, generating hyperspectral image cubes between 7,000 and 715 cm^-1
(1.4?14.0 ?m) at 25 ?m/pixel and 8 cm^-1 spectral sampling. Spectra were normalized to 100%
maximum reflectance for ease of comparison. Point spectra were acquired with a deuterated
triglycine sulfate (DTGS) detector, with a spectral range of 400?4,000 cm^-1 (2.5?25 ?m).
For these analyses, we chose a spot size of 100 × 100 ?m representing a single spot within
the grain, with spectral sampling of 8 cm^-1. Each spectrum represented accumulations of 1,024
scans. For both point spectra and hyperspectral maps, backgrounds were collected on gold mirrors
prior to measuring the sample. Background analyses used the same spot size and acquisition times
as samples.
