Circular Dichroism

Discover the fascinating world of Circular Dichroism, a comprehensive resource authored by experts in the field and published by John Wiley & Sons Inc in 2000. This second edition spans an impressive 912 pages, making it an essential reference for researchers and students alike.

Circular dichroism (CD) is a key phenomenon observed when optically active molecules display differing absorbance of left- and right-hand circularly polarized light. This book delves into the principles of CD and its practical applications, detailing how it is measured using a CD spectropolarimeter. The text explores the nuances of absorbance differences across various wavelengths, particularly in the far UV range, down to 190-170 nm.

Whether you are a seasoned scientist or a curious learner, Circular Dichroism offers valuable insights into this intriguing optical property, making it a must-have addition to your scientific library.
