The Internet Journal of Vibrational Spectroscopy (IJVS)

IJVSThe IRDG are now the custodians of the web-only Internet Journal of Vibrational Spectroscopy (IJVS).

IJVS was the first , free, online Vibrational Spectroscopy Journal, originally published by Professor Pat Hendra of Southampton University.  Perkin Elmer funded the journal from the outset until 2002. John Wiley plc supported the platform until 2018 when copyright was passed to IRDG.  Pat intended that the original journal had to be read as a complete edition so no items could be missed. Unfortunately that format could not be supported on our host.  However although  though no new issues are planned  all the Featured and published articles are now available.

Note: Some links in articles  are now out of date but have been kept as part of the original publication. Individual editions do run as planned on a PC. IRDG have those as an historical record and permission may be given to view for research purposes. Original links to www.ijvs.com have been updated to www.irdg.org/ijvs
