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 second volume offers the following sections:
* Solvent control, including ultrafast solvation dynamics and
related topics
* Ultrafast electron transfer and coherence effects
* Molecular electronics
* Electron transfer and exciplex chemistry
* Biomolecules-from electron transfer tubes to kinetics in a DNA
environment
Part One addresses the historical perspective, electron transfer
phenomena in isolated molecules and clusters, general theory, and
electron transfer kinetics in bridged compounds.
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 inchemistry, 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 Two opens with
solvent control issues, including electron transfer reactions and
ultrafast solvation dynamics. Other topics include ultrafast
electron transfer and coherence effects, molecular electronics, and
electron transfer in exciplex chemistry. This volume concludes with
a section on biomolecules-from electron transfer tubes to
experimental electron transfer and transport in DNA.
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.
