The book describes first the principle photon generation processes
from nuclear reactions, electron motion and from discrete quantum
transitions. It then focuses on the use of photons in various
selected fields of modern natural and life sciences. It bridges
disciplines such as physics, chemistry, earth- and materials
science, proteomics, information technology, photoelectrochemistry,
photosynthesis and spintronics. Advanced light sources and their
use in natural and life sciences are emphasized and the effects
related to the quantum nature of photons (quantum computing,
teleportation) are described. The content encompasses among many
other examples the role of photons on the origin of life and on
homochirality in biology, femtosecond laser slicing, photothermal
cancer therapy, the use of gamma rays in materials science,
photoelectrochemical surface conditioning, quantum information
aspects and photo-spintronics. The book is written for scientists
and graduate students from all related disciplines who are
interested in the science beyond their immediate research field. It
is meant to encourage interdisciplinary research and development in
an age where nanoscience results in a convergence of formerly more
disparate science.
