Dane Bicanic (EDT) Photoacoustic and Photothermal Phenomena III

Annotation

Photoacoustic and Photothermal Phenomena III comprisescontributions explaining new topics, relevant theories,novel methods, and the developmentof instrumentation inthis active research area - information that is otherwisenot available in a single volume. Particular emphasis isplaced on the variety of applications of photoacoustic andphotothermal techniques in disciplines ranging fromenvironmental, agricultural, medical, and biologicalsciences to spectroscopy, nondestructive evaluation,materials characterization, heat and mass transfer, kinetics(including ultrafast phenomena), and solid-state and surfacephysics. This volume provides an excellent overview of the spectrumof activities in the photoacoustic and photothermal fieldworldwide, and thus is suitable both for the specialist andfor the newcomer to this multidisciplinary research area.
