Book Description
A significantly updated translation of Lichtabsorption und Photochemie Organischer Molekule, published by VCH in 1989. A graduate textbook that provides a qualitative description of electronic excitation in organic molecules and of the associated spectroscopy, photophysics, and photochemistry. The treatment is non- mathematical and emphasizes the use of simple qualitative models for developing an intuitive feeling for the course of photophysical and photochemical processes in terms of potential energy hypersurfaces. Special attention is paid to recent developments, particularly to the role of conical intersections. Annotation copyright by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR

Book Description
It is undoubtedly true that much of the progress in the quant~m theory of matter is due to the remarkable success of the independent particle model (IPM)--especially in describing ground states. However, the accurate experimental results of the last 10 years or so, on a variety of spectroscopic phenomena and chemical processes which involve the Excited State, and the related failure of the IPM to reproduce accurately--in many cases, even qualitatively--the observed data, have sent to theorists a clear message: There is need to create and/or apply general and useful approaches to the many-electron problem of the excited state which go beyond the IPM, treat electron correlation and relativity and explain or predict all relevant physical or chemical information with consistent accuracy. This book contains articles devoted mainly to some of the most important new developments in Quantum Chemistry concerning the theoretical foundations and the computational implementation of many-body approaches to the quantitative and detailed under standing of the electronic excited states of atoms, molecules and solids. Furthermore, it contains experimental and pheno menological articles on Photoelectron and Auger spectroscopy, Lifetime measurements and Organic Photochemistry. In combination or individually, these articles constitute a good description of some current theoretical and experimental work on the electronic structure and spectroscopy of atoms, molecules, polymers, surfaces, metal oxides and amorphous solids.

Book 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 states Fundamental concepts and theoretical approaches concerning energy transfer and electron transfer Peculiar light absorption/emission spectra and the photochemical properties of the various families of organic molecules and metal complexes Equipment, techniques, procedures, and reference data concerning photochemical and photophysical experiments, including warnings to avoid mistakes and misinterpretations Relationships 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.

Book Description
Photochemistry: An Introduction covers topics such as industrial photochemistry, solid state photochemistry, spectroscopy and photochemistry of the solid state, industrial applications of photochemistry, and photochromism. The book discusses the application of bonding, structure, energetics, and reactivity of the ground states of molecules to describe the same properties for molecules in their electronically excited states; the electronic spectra of excited states; and how the excited states react to form chemical transients. The text also describes light sources, techniques for measuring light intensities and quantum yields, methods used to detect transient photochemical products, and some ancilliary techniques. A review of some features of typical photochemical processes conducted in the vapor state and a survey of the reactions of the urban atmosphere, are also considered. The book further tackles the mechanisms of organic photochemical reactions; the synthetic applications of organic photochemistry; and the photochemistry of the solid state. The text also looks into photochromism and the industrial applications of photochemistry. People involved in the field of photochemistry will find the book useful.
