  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-009928",
  "term": "Rapid-scan Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A spectroscopic technique that acquires a complete interferogram, representing the infrared absorption spectrum of a sample, in a very short time frame. This is achieved by rapidly moving the mirror in the interferometer, allowing for the capture of transient species or fast chemical reactions. The acquisition time for a single spectrum can be as low as milliseconds.",
