Produktbeschreibung

Optical Spectroscopy of Lanthanides: Magnetic and Hyperfine Interactions is the sixth and final book by the late Brian Wybourne, an accomplished pioneer in the spectroscopy of rare earth ions, and Lidia Smentek, a leading theoretical physicist in the field. Highlighting the impact of lanthanide elements on modern technology, medicine, biochemistry, and molecular biology, this book documents the theory of the spectroscopic properties of lanthanides in various materials and the fundamental principles of their magnetic and hyperfine interactions. With numerous examples, exercises, and sample programs, the text also explores a range of applications including electronic data storage, lasers, superconductors, medicine, nuclear engineering, and nanomaterials.
