Typical ethane sample
The followings is an example of all the outputs generated by the reduction routine. All those results can find for each of the samples by clicking on their respective card above.

Right Figures show the samples post DR1

Range 1#
3 main peaks (labelled as E1, E2, E3 with decreasing wavenumber).
Warning
There seems to be also a very small feature between E2 and E3 that has not been reported in the following litterature:
[Dartois and Langlet, 2021] no report
[Hudson et al., 2014] to check
[Hudson et al., 2009] to check
[Hepp and Herman, 1999] to check
could be ethane:oxirane (7:3) mixed clathrate spectrum
[Richardson et al., 1985] to check

Note
Should I try to plot them with an offset
♠ Peaks#
Range 2#
Warning
Baseline correction is not great within this range
Have I performed a previous

♠ Peaks#
Range 3#
Note
Intersting because band splitt
How do I take that into account in reduction process
peak 6 remain the same
peak 7 is the appearing one
Check litterature review on what have been said there

BC lower range #
After processing the 2021_09_15, I decided to reduce the range of the Baseline correction in order to exclude the lower part of the spectrum that create some errors (cf Plots in the margin)
range modified from index 0 to index 40 (new baseline coorected scan have _U at the end of it’s name)
Comments
No band frequency shift is observed within the margin of error
Intensity shift: E1 and E3 see some changes in their maximum absorbance peak and hence are good tracers for the crystalisation processes
May be a slight peak sharpening is present ?
Evaluation of the peaks at lower wavenumber are necessary to reveal the full picture of phase change
