This periodical review provides a critical analysis of photo-induced processes relevant to a wide range of academic and commercial disciplines. Reflecting current interests in chemistry, physics, biology and technology, this book serves as a primary resource for anyone seeking concise and insightful information on the latest advances in photochemical research.
The volume begins with periodic reports on recent literature covering physical and inorganic aspects, including colour-related molecules, light-induced reactions in cryogenic matrices, photobiological systems investigated via time-resolved spectroscopic techniques, the photochemistry and photophysics of transition metal complexes, as well as recent advances in photocatalytic water splitting. The second section highlights specific topics, including (among others) the photophysics of fluorescent nucleoside analogues, the development of metal-based photosensitizers for anticancer photodynamic therapy and nanostructured materials for photocatalysis. Finally, the book concludes with the SPR Lectures on Photochemistry, offering examples that introduce academic readers to key photochemical topics and providing valuable support for students in the field. The SPR in Photochemistry thus continues to be essential reading for postgraduates, academics, and industry professionals working in photochemistry, helping them stay current with the latest developments in the literature.
