Springer Applications of Synchrotron Radiation: High-Resolution Studies of Molecules and Molecular Adsorbates on Surfaces: 35 (Springer Series in Surface Sciences, 35)

The reader of this monograph will learn about the application of synchrotron radiation to the study of the ground state and dynamics of molecules and molecular adsorbates on surfaces. This is a comprehensive review of techniques to determine the structure, electronic, and vibrational properties of molecular adsorbates. A summary of the current development of spectroscopic methods with synchrotron radiation is given. It also gives a comprehensive review of the state of the art technique development and current understanding of the ground state structure, electronic structure, and dynamic behavior of small chemisorbed molecules.
