Bioinorganic Photochemistry

摘要

When I was preparing to teach a graduate class on the photochemistry of inorganic compounds and materials last year, it was evident that there were no modern textbooks or monographs that were appropriate for use at this level. Indeed, the same situation appeared to be true for all flavors of photochemistry, which is a subtopic relevant to nearly all areas of chemical and materials science. In 2009, this changed somewhat with the publication of the excellent introductory text Principles of Molecular Photochemistry by Turro et al. (University Science Books).
