Synopses & Reviews
This book offers a concise introduction to one of the most important modern analytical methods. Accordingly, its emphasis is on practical guidance. Discussion of the underlying theory is restricted to the bare minimum.
It gives practical instruction in the operation of spectrometers, sample preparation and measurement techniques. Carefully selected examples guide readers in the qualitative interpretation of spectra and in the application of computers, and provide an insight into the latest developments in the field. The book also includes sections on quantitative determination and specialist applications, plus references to the more advanced literature. It is organized such that individual chapters can be studied independently of each other.
A solid introduction to practical IR spectroscopy for both students and practitioners.

Synopsis
Der Leser wird ber Aufbau und Handhabung von Spektrometern, Vorbereitung der Proben und deren Messung unterrichtet. Anhand geeigneter Beispiele lernt er die qualitative Interpretation des Spektrums kennen, auch unter Einsatz von Computern, und wird mit den neuesten Entwicklungen vertraut gemacht. Abschnitte ber quantitative Bestimmungen, spezielle Anwendungsgebiete und verwandte Methoden dienen zur Abrundung des Grundwissens. Hinweise auf weiterf hrende Literatur vermitteln eine gute Orientierung bei speziellen Fragestellungen. Die einzelnen Themenkreise sind weitgehend in sich geschlossen behandelt, so da die Kapitel auch unabh ngig voneinander gelesen werden k nnen.
