Time-Resolved Spectroscopy in Complex Liquids

Time-Resolved Spectroscopy in Complex Liquids introduces the experimental researchers, the "screwdriver scientists", to state-of-the-art techniques in the study of the dynamics of complex liquids. The book's contributors concentrate on time-resolved optical spectroscopy, which recently produced many relevant results and new information about complex liquids. This is an emerging topic of soft-matter science, studying the innovative phenomena appearing in molecular liquids when a process of strong intermolecular interaction takes place. The contributors stress the experimental aspects, even the simple ones. This book succeeds in the full description of the "experimental procedure", overcoming the often-occurring break between "introduction" and the "results discussion".

Provides a cohesive introduction as well as latest developments in the field of complex liquids based on recent technological advances in pulsed laser sources Unique focus on the new experimental procedures in the study of complex dynamical problems in liquid phases Includes supplementary material: sn.pub/extras

Time-Resolved Spectroscopy in Complex Liquids introduces current state-of-the-art techniques in the study of complex dynamical problems in liquid phases. With a unique focus on the experimental aspects applied to complex liquids, this volume provides an excellent overview into the quickly emerging field of soft-matter science. Researchers and engineers will find a comprehensive review of current non-linear spectroscopic and optical Kerr effect techniques, in addition to an in-depth look into relaxation dynamics in complex liquids. This volume offers current experimental findings in transient grating spectroscopy and their application to viscoelastic phenomena in glass-formers, dynamics of confined liquid-crystals, and a time-resolved analysis of the host-quest interactions of dye molecules in liquid-crystal matter.

Time-Resolved Spectroscopy in Complex Liquids provides a cohesive introduction suitable for individuals involved in this emerging field, complete with the latest experimental procedures of complex liquids.
