Publisher's Synopsis
Commencing with a look at the background of Fourier Transform Raman spectroscopy this book goes on to give a detailed documentation of the instrumental and spectroscopic development of the technique to date, discussing its advantages and disadvantages relative to the better known methods. It gives a considered appraisal of the future of the technique as an analytical tool. A considerable portion of the book contains spectral information showing qualitative and quantitative features with a wide range of materials and, further, many novel, important and previously inaccessible applications for which Fourier Transform Raman spectroscopy is particularly outstanding.
