Spectrometric Identification of Organic Compounds, 7th Edition
Date: Oct 11, 2005
Author: Robert M. Silverstein, Francis X. Webster, David Kiemle
First published over 40 years ago, this was the first text on the identification of organic compounds using spectroscopy. This text is now considered to be a classic. The key strength of this text is the extensive set of real-data problems (in Chapters 7 and 8). Even professional chemists use these spectra as reference data. Spectrometric Identification of Organic Compounds is written by and for organic chemists, and emphasizes the synergistic effect resulting from the interplay of the spectra. This...

Optics and Spectroscopy at Surfaces and Interfaces
Date: Sep 30, 2005
Author: Vladimir G. Bordo, Horst-Günter Rubahn
This book covers linear and nonlinear optics as well as optical spectroscopy at solid surfaces and at interfaces between a solid and a liquid or gas. The authors give a concise introduction to the physics of surfaces and interfaces. They discuss in detail physical properties of solid surfaces and of their interfaces to liquids and gases and provide the theoretical background for understanding various optical techniques. The major part of the book is dedicated to a broad review on optical techniques and...

Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry Handbook
Date: Sep 9, 2005
Author: Simon Nelms
Since the first reported linking of an Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) ion source with a mass spectrometer (MS) in 1983, the instrumentation and analytical techniques have been developed to a point where the technology can deliver detection limits of one part in 10^15. With this level of detection, ICP-MS is an invaluable tool in a huge range of applications. Development of the technology continues, for example with the application of lasers to allow direct analysis of solid samples and with linkages to...
