Vibrational Spectroscopy of Molecules and Macromolecules on Surfaces

Beschreibung

Supplying a need that has been evident to researchers and students for several years, this is the first modern work to cover all the practical aspects of surface vibrational spectroscopy, from basic principles to structure-property relations and interfaces. This comprehensive overview tackles the vibrational spectroscopic features of both small and large molecules on surfaces and details the theory and practice of normal coordinate analysis with simple matrix calculation...bulk and surface spectroscopy...all necessary band assignments...and the structural identification and structure-property relations of monomers and polymers on surfaces. Readers will find detailed coverage of surface vibration theory, models, and experimental approaches; light-matter interactions, including infrared and Raman spectroscopy; adsorption on metal oxides from alkaline earth oxides to zeolites; modification and degradation of the polymeric surfaces of thermoplastic polymers and thermosetting; surfaces, interphases, and interfacial regions; and surfactants, colloidal interfaces, and thin films on surfaces. By enabling readers to correlate surface and interface vibrational features with the structures that cause them, this unique work is sure to prove to be an indispensable reference work for researchers and students alike.
