This is the first of two volumes on spectroscopy.
Today, spectroscopic techniques are applied in a huge range of scientific and engineering-related endeavors from ecology to astronomy. With over thirty chapters, this book describes some general theoretical principles and also highlights a number of current applications where spectroscopy is being used successfully. Two main areas of focus in the book are materials science/engineering (e.g. characterization of polymers, nanocomposites and thin films), and spectroscopic analysis of organic compounds including porphyrins, antibiotics, polyphenols, amino acids and pesticide residues. Both qualitative and quantitative spectroscopic techniques are discussed.
Spectroscopic techniques covered in the book include infrared (including FTIR and reflectance IR), NMR, atomic absorption spectroscopy, UV-vis spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction, fluorescence and wavelength dispersive spectroscopy.
This book is an invaluable resource for undergraduate and graduate students in chemistry and polymer or materials science. It will also interest any researchers and practitioners in these fields who want to increase their awareness of the current work that is being done to improve spectroscopic techniques and methodologies.
