Textbook in PDF format An expert collection of case studies, real-world examples, and up-to-date info about quantitative spectroscopic methods. In Practical Quantitative Vibrational and Electronic Spectroscopy: A Guide For Developing, Optimizing, and Validating Procedures, experienced spectroscopist Deborah Peru and an expert team of contributors deliver an up-to-date discussion of the development of the quantitative spectroscopic methods used for measuring samples in the ultraviolet, visible, near IR, and mid IR regions of the spectrum. The book presents and reviews statistical considerations, method development, and standard quantitative techniques involving regression and other approaches. This coverage explores many of the techniques used in industry and academia for extracting quantitative information from spectra. You’ll discover how to develop and implement spectroscopic methods for analysis in products using commercial instruments and software. Readers will also find: A thorough introduction to real-world issues in spectroscopy, including expeditious development timelines and procedure lifecycle management. Comprehensive explorations of the fundamentals of quantitative spectroscopy. Practical discussions of quantitative applications and statistical analysis of spectral data. Select examples of the real-world implementation of spectroscopic technologies. Perfect for scientists, process engineers, and managers supervising the development and use of spectroscopic instruments, Practical Quantitative Vibrational and Electronic Spectroscopy will also benefit students interested in this rapidly developing collection of technologies.
