More About This Title Fundamentals of Photoinduced Electron Transfer

English

Devoted exclusively to the basic theories, concepts and applications of light-initiated electron transfer processes, Fundamentals of Photoinduced Electron Transfer is the first book to deliver an introductory-level account of this highly active research area in a concise and easy-to-follow pedagogical manner. No prior knowledge of photochemistry is assumed or required.
The author introduces essential background information on photochemistry and electrochemistry and presents a systematic account of the photoinduced electron transfer process. He carefully explains the fundamental thermodynamic equation governing the photoinduced electron, explores the diverse realm of electron photochemistry reactions and provides a survey of today's most important applications. Coverage also features discussion on classical and nonclassical theories to faster insight on a host of underlying molecular and environmental factors. Novel applications such as solar energy conversion, artificial photosynthesis, semiconductor technology, organized assemblies, and molecular electronic devices are described in appropriate detail.
Fundamentals of Photoinduced Electron-Transfer is of special value as both a learning tool and working reference in photochemistry, physical chemistry, molecular physics, spectroscopy and electrochemistry.
