Description
Connects principles, processes, and experimental techniques with current research in the continuously expanding field of photochemistry and photophysics Photochemistry and Photophysics covers a wide spectrum of concepts in photochemistry and photophysics, introducing principles, processes, and experimental techniques, with a wealth of examples of current applications and research spanning natural photosynthesis, photomedicine, photochromism, luminescent sensors, energy conversion and storage, and sustainability issues. In this Second Edition, several chapters have been revised considerably and others have been almost entirely rewritten. A number of schemes and figures have been added, and the reference list at the end of each chapter has been extended and updated. Clearly structured, the first part of the text discusses the formation, properties, and reactivity of excited states of inorganic and organic molecules and supramolecular species, and the second part focuses on photochemical and photophysical processes in nature and artificial systems. Readers will learn how photochemical and photophysical processes can be exploited for novel, unusual, and unexpected applications. Written by world-renowned experts in the field, Photochemistry and Photophysics includes information on: Formation, electronic structure, properties, chemical reactivity, and radiative and nonradiative decay of electronically excited statesFundamental concepts and theoretical approaches concerning energy transfer and electron transferPeculiar light absorption/emission spectra and the photochemical properties of the various families of organic molecules and metal complexesEquipment, techniques, procedures, and reference data concerning photochemical and photophysical experiments, including warnings to avoid mistakes and misinterpretationsRelationships between photochemical, photophysical, and electrochemical properties of molecules that enable interconversion between light and chemical energy With an appropriate mix of introductory, intermediate, and advanced content, this is an ideal textbook resource for related undergraduate and postgraduate courses. The text is also valuable for scientists already active in photochemical and photophysical research who will find helpful suggestions to undertake novel scientific projects.
