Inhaltsangabe

Water is the most important element for a life. Scientists have been doing thorough investigations on the properties of water while engineers have - ploited water in various industrial processes that aim at better optimization of the quality of industrial products. The knowledge of the physico-chemical properties of various liquids is extremely important in the ?eld of life s- ences. Recently, the study of liquids containing nanoparticles has been gr- ing,sincee. g. themoderndevelopmentofnewdrugsbybioa?nityassays,and drug delivery is based more and more on the exploitation of nanoparticles in liquid phase. Optical metrology in context of drugs development is becoming an important tool in high-throuhgput screening of potential molecules. - fortunately, process liquids in life sciences and in industrial environments are usually ”ill-behaving” and it is usually di?cult to monitor their condition. Fortunately,opticalsensingbasedonre?ectometrycanbeexploitedininsp- tion of the quality of transparent and turbid liquids. This book is exceptional in the sense that it introduces the theory and practical re?ectometry between same covers. We recommend this book for beginners and professionals who are doing research or working with a variety of liquids either in academic or engineering societies. The book is helpful for physicists, chemists and en- neers since it covers topics related to basic physics and optics, optical spectra analysis, optical metrology and practical building of re?ectometers. The authors wish to express their cordial thanks to Professor Rauno Aulaskari for helping in the formulation of Appendix B and to Dr. Chun Ye for his critical comments.

Über diesen Titel

Von der hinteren Coverseite

This book presents an up-to-date overview of reflectometers used for optical spectroscopy of various kinds of liquids, ranging from well-known transparent liquids to "pathological" industrial liquids. The book reviews and explains basic materials for anyone wanting to get to know the theory, spectral analysis and modern devices needed for the measurement of refractive index and absorption of liquids. Moreover, the book gives an introduction to reflectivity from optically nonlinear liquids such as liquids containing nanoparticles. This latter topic is important in modern nano-sciences.
