Fundamentals and Applications of Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy
This note provides an overview of the principles and applications of Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy, a powerful technique for elemental analysis. Prof. Yalc discusses the physics that underlies LIBS, including the formation and evolution of laser plasmas, and shows the components of a LIBS system, including lasers, optics, and detection systems. The note explores further the use of laser plasma excitation for spectrochemical analysis, which is applicable to gases, liquids, solids, and particles. A special issue like double pulse LIBS, resonance-enhanced LIBS, and laser-induced fluorescence (LIF-LIBS) are also covered. The importance of this note lies in the recent advances and applications in the areas of materials science as well as environmental analysis.

This multi-topic resource covers key spectroscopy techniques used in the analysis of molecular and atomic systems. The note encompasses a detailed introduction to electronic spectroscopy, IR spectroscopy, and NMR spectroscopy, including both proton and carbon types, mass spectrometry, electron spin resonance (ESR), and Mössbauer spectroscopy. There is also a detailed description of every technique in its basic principles, experimental setup, and applications in different fields like chemistry, materials science, and biochemistry. The note also focuses on how these spectroscopic methods are applied to understand molecular structures, chemical bonding, and dynamic processes. Perfect for students and researchers, the book provides both a theoretical background and practical insights into the more general applications of spectroscopy in modern scientific research.

Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
This note focuses on the applications of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) in clinical and non-clinical practice. The book is divided into two parts: MRS inside the clinic, such as imaging and analyzing metabolic processes in vivo, which will be presented in the first part of the book, and applications of MRS outside the clinic in fields including biochemistry, neuroscience, and pharmacology. As the note discusses both clinical and research applications, it allows for a very comprehensive look at how MRS can be used to probe biochemical and metabolic processes. This note would be an excellent resource for students and professionals in the medical and scientific communities.
