① Monochrome ter diffracts the light source
② Light split into reference and incident beam
into two equal beams
③ sample absorbs certain wavelengths ,
remaining transmitted
④ Intensity of transmitted beam is dimmer than reference
⑤ Intensity difference between two beams measured to
determine amount of light absorption
