Description
Book Synopsisan integrated approach to electron transfer phenomena
This two-part stand-alone volume in the prestigious Advances in Chemical Physics series provides the most comprehensive overview of electron transfer science today. It draws on cutting-edge research from diverse areas of chemistry, physics, and biology-covering the most recent developments in the field, and pointing to important future trends. This initial volume includes:
* A historical perspective spanning five decades
* A review of concepts, problems, and ideas in current research
* Electron transfer in isolated molecules and in clusters
* General theory, including useful algorithms
* Spectra and electron transfer kinetics in bridged compounds
The second volume covers solvent control, ultrafast electron transfer and coherence effects, molecular electronics, electron transfer and chemistry, and biomolecules.
Electron transfer science has seen tremendous progress
