Books in the Springer Series on Fluorescence series

This volume describes the application of fluorescencespectroscopy in polymer research. Subsequent chapters introduce the theoreticalprinciples of advanced fluorescence methods and typical examples of theirapplication in polymer science.

It offers contributions from outstanding researchers in the fluorescence field, describing their perspectives on modern fluorescence and its highly diverse applications, ranging from the photophysics of tryptophan and proteins, membrane studies, fluorescence microscopy on live cells, novel software approaches and instrumentation.

This book gathers 12 outstanding contributions that reflect state-of-the-art industrial applications of fluorescence, ranging from the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries to explosives detection, aeronautics, instrumentation development, lighting, photovoltaics, water treatment and much more.
