Infrared and Raman Spectroscopies of Clay Minerals

Infrared and Raman Spectroscopy of the Clay Minerals, Volume 8 is an up-to-date overview of spectroscopy techniques used in the study of cationic clay minerals. The methods include infrared spectroscopy, covering mid-IR, near-IR, far-IR and IR emission spectroscopy, as well as FT-Raman spectroscopy and Raman microscopy. This book complements the succinct introductions described in the original Handbook of Clay Science (Volumes 1 and 5B), offering even more depth and featuring the most important literature since the development and application of these techniques in clay science. No other book covers such a wide variety of spectroscopic techniques in a single volume for clay and soil scientists. In addition, some chapters will be of interest to scientists working on planetary geology, e.g. Mars, where some of the equipment either on the surface or orbiting is using spectroscopic methods to determine the soil chemistry/mineralogy of the planet under study. Includes a systematic review of spectroscopic methodsCovers the theory of Infrared and Raman spectroscopy and instrumentationFeatures a series of chapters each covering either a particular technique and/or application INDICE: 1.
