Molecular Materials and Optoelectronic Applications

Over the last fifteen years there has been a major worldwide proliferation of molecular-based optical technologies encompassing displays, telecommunications, correlators, machine vision, polarisation and illumination control in microscopy and the arts, with an associated emergence of new industrial activities and research programmes in the area. Molecular Materials & Optoelectronic Applications is the first attempt to make the disparate elements of this technology accessible in a single source to the wide range of scientists and engineers involved in these activities. This book encompasses the extreme interdisciplinary nature of the technology, meeting the requirement that the growing community of people active in this field remain informed.
