A method is described for measuring directly the infrared dichroism spectrum of a film by use of a single-beam spectrometer. The method involves modulating the beam passing through the sample with a rotating polarizer rather than with a chopper. The a.c. response of a detector is then proportional to the difference between the principal absorbencies of the sample.
