Molecular Spectroscopy by Rob Schurko

The main focus of this note is the various forms of optical spectroscopy, including rotational, vibrational and electronic spectroscopy, as well as a brief look at photoelectron spectroscopy and lasers. The note finishes with an introduction to radiofrequency spectroscopy techniques, including nuclear magnetic resonance and electron spin resonance. The purpose of this note is to provide an advanced level undergraduate student in Chemistry or Physics with a general overview of molecular spectroscopy. Specifically, the underlying principles of spectroscopy are examined using quantum mechanics, the interaction of light and matter, and group theory as starting points.

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.
