OPUS File Format

The OPUS file format, developed by Bruker, is a versatile and widely used file format in the field of spectroscopy and materials analysis. Designed to store and exchange spectroscopic data, OPUS provides a comprehensive framework for organizing and preserving various types of spectroscopic information. This format seamlessly integrates spectral data, experimental parameters, and metadata into a single file, ensuring data integrity and ease of access. However, the format is proprietary and closed, so there’s no guarantee that Spview can open all file types. OPUS files can contain diverse spectroscopic techniques such as infrared (IR), Raman, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and more. They can be loaded into Spview with the menu Data‣ Load spectrum file.
