title: Instrumentation for FT-IR reflection spectroscopy with synchrotron radiation.
abstract: A versatile experimental set-up for infrared reflectance measurements with synchrotron radiation and its adaptation to a beamline is presented. Particular consideration is given to the collimation and the polarization of incident radiation. The performance is characterized with experimental results. Due to the high brilliance of the synchrotron radiation source, the irradiation of samples smaller than 1 mm(2) was found to be improved by more than one order of magnitude when compared to a globar.
