Overview

Designed for practitioners in both industry and academia, this book demonstrates the current status and future potential of millimetre wavelength (MMW) spectrometry as a means of quantitative analysis of gaseous mixtures. After outlining the spectroscopic theory required, the authors discuss the components of an MMW cavity spectrometer, concentrating on compact, automatic, low-cost instruments. They then cover solid state MMW sources with cryogenically cooled and room temperature detectors, post-detector signal processing, smoothing, filtering and spectral profile fitting. The book concludes with a look at the future of the technique, in areas such as millimetre wave-over-fibre technology.

Author Information

Professor of Analytical Chemistry. He was a pioneer in introducing Atomic Spectrometry methods in Spain. He is a world-reputed Atomic Spectroscopist who introduces/develops many novel, state-of-the-art atomic techniques. He is a member of the editorial board of ABC and also of the editorial board of the RSC for a series of monographs on Atomic Spectrometry (leaded by Prof. Neil Burnett). He currently develops and tests cutting-edge instruments, even for some commercial firms. He published many papers and books. In 2007 he won the Robert Kellner award (The Robert Keller Lecture will be given at the Euroanalysis 2007).
