About the Book

Laser spectroscopy is a valuable tool for sensing and chemical analysis. Developments in lasers, detectors and mathematical analytical tools have led to improvements in the sensitivity and selectivity of spectroscopic techniques and extended their fields of application. Laser spectroscopy for sensing examines these advances and how laser spectroscopy can be used in a diverse range of industrial, medical and environmental applications. Part one reviews basic concepts of atomic and molecular processes, presents the fundamentals of laser technology for controlling the spectral and temporal aspects of laser excitation and concludes with explanations of the selectivity, sensitivity and stability of the measurements, the construction of databases and the automation of data analysis by machine learning. Part two explores laser spectroscopy techniques, including cavity-based absorption spectroscopy and the use of photo-acoustic spectroscopy to acquire absorption spectra of gases and condensed media. Imaging methods using laser-induced fluorescence and phosphorescence spectroscopies are discussed before focussing on light detection and ranging, photothermal spectroscopy and Terahertz spectroscopy. Part three covers a variety of applications of these techniques, particularly the detection of chemical, biological and explosive threats, as well as their use in medicine and forensic science. Finally spectroscopic analysis of industrial materials and their applications in nuclear research and industry are considered. The text provides the reader with a broad overview of the techniques and applications of laser spectroscopy for sensing. It is of great interest to laser scientists and engineers as well as professionals using lasers for medical applications, environmental applications, military applications and material processing.
