Abstract

See full text

System and Methods may be provided for performing chemical spectroscopy on samples from the scale of nanometers with surface sensitivity even on very thick sample. In the method, a signal indicative of infrared absorption of the surface layer is constructed by illuminating the surface layer with a beam of infrared radiation and measuring a probe response comprising at least one of a resonance frequency shift and a phase shift of a resonance of a probe in response to infrared radiation absorbed by the surface layer.
