Abstract
This review reports the recent progress on ATR-far ultraviolet (FUV) spectroscopy in the condensed phase. ATR-FUV spectroscopy for liquids and solids enables one to explore various topics in physical chemistry, analytical chemistry, nanoscience and technology, materials science, electrochemistry, and organic chemistry. In this review, we put particular emphasis on the three major topics: (1) studies on electronic transitions and structures of various molecules, which one cannot investigate via ordinary UV spectroscopy. The combined use of ATR-FUV spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations allows for the investigation of various electronic transitions, including σ, n-Rydberg transitions. ATR-FUV spectroscopy may open a new avenue for σ-chemistry. (2) ATR-FUV spectroscopy enables one to measure the first electronic transition of water at approximately 160 nm without peak saturation. Using this band, one can study the electronic structure of water, aqueous solutions, and adsorbed water. (3) ATR-FUV spectroscopy has its own advantages of the ATR method as a surface analysis method. ATR-FUV spectroscopy is a powerful technique for exploring a variety of top surface phenomena (∼50 nm) in adsorbed water, polymers, graphene, organic materials, ionic liquids, and so on. This review briefly describes the principles, characteristics, and instrumentation of ATR-FUV spectroscopy. Next, a detailed description about quantum chemical calculation methods for FUV and UV regions is given. The recent application of ATR-FUV-UV spectroscopy studies on electronic transitions from σ orbitals in various saturated molecules is introduced first, followed by a discussion on the applications of ATR-FUV spectroscopy to studies on water, aqueous solutions, and adsorbed water. Applications of ATR-FUV spectroscopy in the analysis of other materials such as polymers, ionic liquids, inorganic semiconductors, graphene, and carbon nanocomposites are elucidated. In addition, ATR-FUV-UV-vis spectroscopy focusing on electrochemical interfaces is outlined. Finally, FUV-UV-surface plasmon resonance studies are discussed.

Abstract
The purpose of this review is to demonstrate advances, challenges and perspectives of quantum chemical approaches in molecular spectroscopy of the condensed phase. Molecular spectroscopy, particularly vibrational spectroscopy and electronic spectroscopy, has been used extensively for a wide range of areas of chemical sciences and materials science as well as nano- and biosciences because it provides valuable information about structure, functions, and reactions of molecules. In the meantime, quantum chemical approaches play crucial roles in the spectral analysis. They also yield important knowledge about molecular and electronic structures as well as electronic transitions. The combination of spectroscopic approaches and quantum chemical calculations is a powerful tool for science, in general. Thus, our article, which treats various spectroscopy and quantum chemical approaches, should have strong implications in the wider scientific community. This review covers a wide area of molecular spectroscopy from far-ultraviolet (FUV, 120-200 nm) to far-infrared (FIR, 400-10 cm-1)/terahertz and Raman spectroscopy. As quantum chemical approaches, we introduce several anharmonic approaches such as vibrational self-consistent field (VSCF) and the combination of periodic harmonic calculations with anharmonic corrections based on finite models, grid-based techniques like the Numerov approach, the Cartesian coordinate tensor transfer (CCT) method, Symmetry-Adapted Cluster Configuration-Interaction (SAC-CI), and the ZINDO (Semi-empirical calculations at Zerner's Intermediate Neglect of Differential Overlap). One can use anharmonic approaches and grid-based approaches for both infrared (IR) and near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, while CCT methods are employed for Raman, Raman optical activity (ROA), FIR/terahertz and low-frequency Raman spectroscopy. Therefore, this review overviews cross relations between molecular spectroscopy and quantum chemical approaches, and provides various kinds of close-reality advanced spectral simulation for condensed phases.

Abstract
Far-ultraviolet (FUV) spectroscopy in the region of 140-200 nm of condensed-phase has received keen interest as a new electronic spectroscopy. The introduction of the attenuated total reflection (ATR) technique to the FUV region has opened a new avenue for FUV spectroscopy of liquids and solids. ATR-FUV spectroscopy enables the study of electronic structures and transitions of most types of molecules. It also holds great promise for a variety of applications, i.e., from the application to basic sciences to practical applications. In this review, the characteristics and advantages of ATR-FUV spectroscopy in the condensed phase are described first; then, a brief historical overview is provided. Next, the ATR-FUV spectroscopy instrumentation is outlined. After these introductory parts, a variety of AFT-FUV spectroscopy applications are introduced, starting from applications to investigations of electronic structure and transitions of alkanes, graphenes, and polymers. Then, time-resolved ATR-FUV spectroscopy is discussed. The applications to materials research, such as the research on inorganic semiconductors and ionic liquids, follow. In the last part, the FUV spectroscopy perspective is emphasized.

Abstract
Attenuated total reflection (ATR) spectra, which are often used in IR analysis, can be transformed into extinction and refraction spectra by Kramers-Kronig transformation (KKT) with Fresnel equations. However, it is often difficult to obtain correct optical indices due to the inherent instrumental functions. This paper proposes a simple practical method for correction of KKT with two parameters, which include all the effects of the instrumental function. In order to obtain the parameters of the instrumental function, absorption ratios of charge transfer to solvent (CTTS) transitions of aqueous iodide ions observed at 195 nm and 230 nm were used as a standard. The absorption indices calculated from the ATR spectra with the parameters correspond reasonably well to those given by the transmittance spectra not only in the UV region but also in the far-ultraviolet (FUV, 120-200 nm) region. By applying the corrected KKT to the ATR-FUV spectra of aqueous potassium halide solutions in the range of 0-2 M, correct features of the absorption spectra of KCl and KBr, whose CTTS bands are thought to be observed in FUV region, were confirmed. It is possible to use the parameters representing the instrument function as long as the instrument is not changed.
