MOLECULAR SPECTROSCOPY 2ED (HB 2017) Hardcover

This textbook introduces the fundamental principles of spectroscopic methods, connecting basic ideas to practical applications across various scientific disciplines like materials science, biology, solar energy, and environmental science. The author highlights the use of time-dependent theory to relate spectral data (in the frequency domain) to molecular behavior over time (in the time domain). This is further emphasized by two new chapters on nonlinear optical spectroscopy and time-resolved spectroscopy. The book presents the necessary theoretical background to enable readers to effectively use spectroscopic techniques in their own research and studies.
