an integrated approach to electron transfer phenomena
This two-part stand-alone volume in the prestigious Advances in
Chemical Physics series provides the most comprehensive overview of
electron transfer science today. It draws on cutting-edge research
from diverse areas of chemistry, physics, and biology-covering the
most recent developments in the field, and pointing to important
future trends. This initial volume includes:
* A historical perspective spanning five decades
* A review of concepts, problems, and ideas in current
research
* Electron transfer in isolated molecules and in clusters
* General theory, including useful algorithms
* Spectra and electron transfer kinetics in bridged compounds
The second volume covers solvent control, ultrafast electron
transfer and coherence effects, molecular electronics, electron
transfer and chemistry, and biomolecules.
Electron transfer science has seen tremendous progress in recent
years. Technological innovations, most notably the advent of
femtosecond lasers, now permit the real-time investigation of
intramolecular and intermolecular electron transfer processes on a
time scale of nuclear motion. New scientific information abounds,
illuminating the processes of energy acquisition, storage, and
disposal in large molecules, clusters, condensed phase, and
biophysical systems.
Electron Transfer: From Isolated Molecules to Biomolecules is the
first book devoted to the exciting work being done in nonradiative
electron transfer dynamics today. This two-part edited volume
emphasizes the interdisciplinary nature of the field, bringing
together the contributions of pioneers in chemistry, physics, and
biology.Both theoretical and experimental topics are featured. The
authors describe modern approaches to the exploration of different
systems, including supersonic beam techniques, femtosecond laser
spectroscopy, chemical syntheses, and methods in genetic and
chemical engineering. They examine applications in such areas as
supersonic jets, solvents, electrodes, semi- conductors,
respiratory and enzymatic protein systems, photosynthesis, and
more. They also relate electron transfer and radiationless
transitions theory to pertinent physical phenomena, and provide a
conceptual framework for the different processes.
Complete with over two hundred illustrations, Part One reviews
developments in the field since its inception fifty years ago, and
discusses electron transfer phenomena in both isolated molecules
and in clusters. It outlines the general theory, exploring areas of
the control of kinetics, structure-function relationships,
fluctuations, coherence, and coupling to solvents with complex
spectral density in different types of electron transfer processes.
Timely, comprehensive, and authoritative, Electron Transfer: From
Isolated Molecules to Biomolecules is an essential resource for
physical chemists, molecular physicists, and researchers working in
nonradiative dynamics today.
