This practical guide to spectroscopy and inorganic materials meetsthe demand from academia and the science community for anintroductory text that introduces the different opticalspectroscopic techniques, used in many laboratories, for materialcharacterisation.
* Treats the most basic aspects to be introduced into the fieldof optical spectroscopy of inorganic materials, enabling a studentto interpret simple optical (absorption, reflectivity, emission andscattering) spectra
* Contains simple, illustrative examples and solvedexercises
* Covers the theory, instrumentation and applications ofspectroscopy for the characterisation of inorganic materials,including lasers, phosphors and optical materials such asphotonics
This is an ideal beginner's guide for students with someprevious knowledge in quantum mechanics and optics, as well as areference source for professionals or researchers in materialsscience, especially the growing field of optical materials.

"This is a useful book for an undergraduate or an early-stagepostgraduate course in spectroscopy." (Reviews, June 2008)
"[allows] students with a background in quantum physics andsolid state physics, to interpret simple optical spectra...andobtain knowledge of the main instrumentation used in this field."(Chimie Nouvelle, March 2007)
