【Introduction】:

In situ absorption spectroscopy is an advanced charaterization technique. It facilitates the examination of the light absorption characteristics of samples in real-time scenarios, thereby allowing for the acquisition of intricate, time-resolved datasets. The key of this techinique is its high temporal resolution, enabling the capture of diverse absorption spectra to not only identify the final state but also illuminate the sample's optical behavior throughout the response process. For example, during the spin-coating process of a thin film, this technique can reveal the dynamic process of film crystallization during the transition from solution to solid state.
