Bridging condensed matter physics, photochemistry, photophysics, and materials science, Electromagnetic Radiation in Analysis and Design of Organic Materials: Electronic and Biotechnology Applications covers physical properties of materials in the presence of radiation from across the electromagnetic spectrum. It describes the optical, spectral, thermal, and morphological properties of a wide range of materials and their practical implications in electronic and biotechnologies. It discusses recent advances in the use of radiation in analysis of materials and design for advanced applications. The book contains experimental and theoretical issues that reflect the impact of radiation on materials characteristics highlighting their ease of analysis or adaptation for applications as optical filters, drug delivery systems, antimicrobial layers, amphetamine detectors, or liquid crystal displays.
Rezensionen / Stimmen
"The selection of the topics is quite good, as it discusses the interaction of a large array of compounds with the electromagnetic radiation. The general topic is very useful, as these interactions yield very useful information, for both qualitative and quantitative analysis, although they are nondestructive techniques."
- Mirela Praisler, Dunarea de Jos University of Galati, Romania
"This book can represent a good text book for senior-undergraduate and post-graduate students or experienced professionals that are looking to specialize in using the electromagnetic radiation in the analysis and processing of the various materials."
- George Amarandei, Dublin Institute of Technology, Ireland
"Authors provide a well-structured and self-contained book, yet concise, focused on selected topics related to the interactions of the electromagnetic radiations with organic matter, from small molecules to macromolecules and biological polymers. Each chapter addresses a specific subject and can be read it independently and in any order. The multidisciplinary approach supported by different methods of investigations and modern methods of analysis is a main strength of the content of the book. The accessible style used in explaining the complicated phenomena is of great advantage for the readers."
- Cristina Stan, University of Bucharest, Romania

Dana Ortansa Dorohoi is Professor Emeritus at the "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" University, Faculty of Physics. She obtained her PhD in Physics in 1978 and gained the academic title of Professor in Department of Optics and Spectroscopy at the same university in 1998. Subsequently she worked on her habilitation and to-date has supervised around 25 PhD theses. In 2012, she was awarded with the title of Professor Emeritus of the "Alexandru Ioan Cuza" University. In parallel with her didactic activities she conducted scientific research on various topics, including liquid crystals, simple liquids, optics of crystals and liquid crystals, intermolecular interactions in solutions, and electro-optical parameters of the molecules. Professor Dorohoi's scientific contributions developed over 43 years include interdisciplinary research for theoretical and experimental substantiations of the processes occurring in anisotropic media under electromagnetic radiations, thus developing new optical and spectral analysis methods of optical properties of materials in solution or solid state. She has published well over 165 ISI-indexed articles in the fields of physics of liquids and anisotropic media, macromolecular science, photochemistry, and radiation chemistry and is the author of 3 patents, over 10 books or books chapters, and over 35 research projects. Professor Dorohoi is referee for several scientific journals in the area of optics and molecular spectroscopy.
