I want to know if solid samples like polymers, thin films, etc can be subjected to Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy using the Jasco J-810 machine? If so, are there any special requirements for a special sample cell or cuvette to load my samples in? The local distributor here says that the machine needs a special rotating sample holder/integrator which is used predominantly for solid samples. Is that true?
I have never attempted to analyze any solid/gel like or thin film samples by CD spectroscopy.
Any suggestion and feedback would help me a lot.
Thanks in advance.
