Computer Methods in UV, Visible and IR Spectroscopy

This advanced level text documents a range of recent developments in computer methods which have led to considerable advances in molecular spectroscopy (UV, Visible and IR) and consequently led to a massive increase in the applications of spectroscopic methods to new problems. It is written by leading experts and fulfils a real need for more information on the subject. Computer Methods in UV, Visible and IR Spectroscopy covers the following two main areas and also provides essential practical examples: Identification of materials from their IR spectra by computer band match and expert systems; Data Manipulation and `combined techniques'. This book will assist operators of UV, Visible and IR spectrometers to make the most efficient use of the computers and programs supplied with their instruments.
