This is the first of two volumes on spectroscopy.
Spectroscopy is an indispensable analytical tool in a huge range of scientific and engineering disciplines. This book describes some general theoretical principles of spectroscopy and also highlights a number of current applications where spectroscopy is being used successfully, with two main areas of focus being life sciences and medicine and materials science/engineering. The following types of spectroscopic technique are discussed: vibrational spectroscopy (i.e. Raman and infrared, including FTIR and ATR-IR), magnetic resonance spectroscopy, X-ray spectroscopy, spectrophotometry, and atomic absorption spectroscopy, including laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy. In addition, the book will include comparison studies of different spectroscopic techniques, and will also describe methods for signal improvement and error reduction, such as derivatization.
This book is essential reading for students and researchers in a number of fields, especially chemistry, biomedicine, environmental science, agriculture, polymer science and materials science. We hope that it will stimulate ideas for further research in the drive to improve spectroscopic techniques and methodologies.
