Electron Transfer in Chemistry and Biology

An Introduction to the Theory

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Das Buch beleuchtet die grundlegenden Prinzipien des Elektronentransfers und die spezifischen Auswirkungen des Ladungstransfers; daneben wird die historische Entwicklung dieses Gebietes ausführlich beschrieben. Theoretische Konzepte wie die Born-Oppenheimer-Näherung, der Tunneleffekt und die Dielektrizitätstheorie stehen im Mittelpunkt des ersten Teils; der zweite Teil illustriert die Theorie anhand zahlreicher Beispiele. (11/98) Electron Transfer in Chemistry and Biology An Introduction to the Theory Alexander M. Kuznetsov Russian Academy of Sciences, Moscow, Russia Jens Ulstrup Technical University of Denmark, Lyngby, Denmark Electron transfer is perhaps the single most important physical event in chemical, electrochemical, photochemical, biochemical, and biophysical processes. The focus and ubiquityof electron transfer is intriguing and exciting but a coherent and comprehensive approach to this topic is at the same time a challenge. Electron Transfer in Chemistry and Biology provides a thorough and didactic approach to the theoretical basis of electron transfer phenomena. Not only does it offer a full introduction to this area and a discussion of its historical development, it also gives detailed explanations of difficult issues, for example, long-range electron transfers, stochastic and dynamic processes, and biological features. A wide variety of readers will find this volume of great interest, ranging from final year undergraduate students, postgraduate students and university lecturers, to research staff in numerous fields including medical companies, electronics industry, catalysis research and development, chemical industry and some hospitals.
