19. SUMMARY The infrared (IR) region of the spectrum encompasses radiation with wavenumbers ranging from about 12,800 to 10 cm21. The IR spectrum is usually subdivided into three regions, the near-IR, the mid-IR, and the far-IR. IR inactive-No net change in dipole moment occurs during the vibration or rotation of homonuclear species such as O2, N2, or Cl2. The selection rule states that . Three types of instruments for IR absorption measurements are commonly available: Dispersive spectrophotometers with a grating monochromator, FT spectrometers employing an interferometer and Nondispersive photometers using a filter or an absorbing gas that are used for analysis of atmospheric gases at specific wavelengths.   19
