The optical absorption of water and some organic liquids [CH3OH, CH3OD, CD3OD, C2H5OH, C4H9OH, (CH3)2CO, (C2H5)2O and C6H6] has been investigated in the near infrared by photoacoustic spectroscopy. Characteristical absorption bands of combinations and overtones of strong infrared fundamental vibrations are observed and can be used for qualitative analysis of these liquids. The amplitude of the photoacoustic signal shows an f-1-dependence of the modulation frequency f of the incident light for all absorption signals, except for the hydroxyl absorption bands of water and the alcohols. The deviation of the expected frequency dependence points to a modification of the liquid structure toward the surface of the liquid-gas boundary.
