Bøger i Springer Series in Chemical Physics serien

In 1984 Desmond O'Connor and David Phillips published their comprehensive book "Time-correlated Single Photon Counting". However, acquisition times were relatively slow due to the low repetition rate of the light sources and the limited speed of the electronics of the 70s and early 80s.

This book is the first detailed and comprehensive guide to the theory of optical band shape of guest-molecule-doped crystals, polymers and glasses. Its main focus is on the dynamics of a single molecule, measured with the help of a train of photons emitted at random time moments.

Providing the quantum-mechanical foundations of chemical bonding, this unique textbook emphasizes key concepts such as superposition, degeneracy of states and the role of the electron spin. Experimental examples are included to illustrate how the abstract concepts are manifest in real systems.

This book discusses the basic principles and processes of solar energy conversion in natural photosynthesis. The fundamental photochemical and photophysical processes involved are presented and discussed, along with protection mechanisms and efficiency calculations for both natural and artificial photosynthesis.

This book is devoted to the emerging field of techniques for visualizing atomic-scale properties of active catalysts under actual working conditions, i.e. The book has a strong emphasis on the new techniques and illustrates how the challenges introduced by the harsh, operando conditions are faced for each of these new tools.

This thirteenth volume in the PUILS series covers a broad range of topics from this interdisciplinary research field, focusing on atoms, molecules, and clusters interacting in intense laser field and high-order harmonics generation and their applications.

This 14th volume in the PUILS series presents up-to-date reviews of advances in Ultrafast Intense Laser Science, an interdisciplinary research field spanning atomic and molecular physics, molecular science, and optical science, which has been stimulated by the rapid developments in ultrafast laser technologies.
