OpenSpecy (version 1.5.3)

adj_intens: Adjust spectral intensities to standard absorbance units.

Description

Converts reflectance or transmittance intensity units to absorbance units and adjust log or exp transformed units.

Usage

adj_intens(x, ...)

# S3 method for default adj_intens(x, type = "none", make_rel = TRUE, log_exp = "none", ...)

# S3 method for OpenSpecy adj_intens(x, type = "none", make_rel = TRUE, log_exp = "none", ...)

Value

adj_intens() returns a data frame containing two columns named "wavenumber" and "intensity".

Arguments

x

a list object of class OpenSpecy.

type

a character string specifying whether the input spectrum is in absorbance units ("none", default) or needs additional conversion from "reflectance" or "transmittance" data.

make_rel

logical; if TRUE spectra are automatically normalized with make_rel().

log_exp

a character string specifying whether the input needs to be log transformed "log", exp transformed "exp", or not ("none", default).

...

further arguments passed to submethods; this is to adj_neg() for adj_intens() and to conform_res() for conform_intens().

Details

Many of the Open Specy functions will assume that the spectrum is in absorbance units. For example, see subtr_baseline(). To run those functions properly, you will need to first convert any spectra from transmittance or reflectance to absorbance using this function. The transmittance adjustment uses the \(log(1 / T)\) calculation which does not correct for system and particle characteristics. The reflectance adjustment uses the Kubelka-Munk equation \((1 - R)^2 / 2R\). We assume that the reflectance intensity is a percent from 1-100 and first correct the intensity by dividing by 100 so that it fits the form expected by the equation.
