The spectral range of infrared (IR) spectromicroscopy station (BL06B) covers the near, middle and far infrared region (10cm-1-10000cm-1) at Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation (SSRF). The endstation is equipped with high-resolution Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometer, IR microscope, scanning near-field optical microscope, high-sensitivity MCT detector and various in-situ experimental devices. The main experimental methods include IR spectroscopy, IR spectromicroscopy, nano-resolution IR spectroscopy, and the combination of IR and ED-XAS, etc. SRIR source has the advantages of small light source size, high collimation and high brightness. The diffraction-limited spatial resolution can be obtained by SRIR spectromicroscopy technology. SRIR technology is able to get some microscopic information which is difficult to get by conventional IR source. SRIR technology is widely used in life science, chemistry and polymer science, earth and space science, cultural heritage and archaeology, etc.
