An all-inclusive guide on the analytical methods of Raman,
infrared, and near-infrared chemical imaging
An underutilized technology, chemical imaging through Raman,
infrared (IR), and near-infrared (NIR) is beginning to gain
recognition for its non-destructive method of permitting
visualization of spatially resolved chemical information. This type
of analysis is triggering a groundswell of demand as manufactured
materials become more complex and the need for greater scrutiny and
less damaging research practices is at a premium. Concentrating on
the applications of chemical imaging, this book presents a thorough
background on the theory, software, and hardware employed in this
analytical technique. With full examination of this rapidly growing
field, this book:
* Combines many different aspects and applications into one
comprehensive volume
* Discusses how chemical imaging techniques have expanded greatly
in terms of instruments and applications, but have lagged in
general awareness among scientists and industries that would
benefit the most from them
* Describes chemical imaging uses in key areas–biomedical,
pharmaceutical, food, and polymer research
* Has chapters that outline hardware and instrumentation for the
different methods of chemical imaging
Encapsulating analytic methods without complicating the subject
matter, this book shows where chemical imaging has been
successfully applied, inspiring researchers to cultivate the
exciting capabilities rooted within this powerful and multifaceted
technology.
