Description

Infrared (IR) spectroscopy offers a powerful approach to analyzing the purity of linear alkyl benzene (LAB)-based liquid scintillators.
While previous studies have largely focused on electronic transitions using ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, this work explores the vibrational
transitions captured by IR spectroscopy. By examining the unique IR spectral characteristics of these solutions, we provide a comprehensive analysis
of impurity detection and identification. This research demonstrates the effectiveness of IR spectroscopy as a quality assurance tool for liquid
scintillation solutions, ultimately contributing to the enhancement of neutrino detection experiments.
