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.
