Analytical Aspects of Thermal Lensing Spectroscopy

  • Chapter
Book cover Lasers in Chemical Analysis

Part of the book series: Contemporary Instrumentation and Analysis ((CIA))

Abstract

The laser is one of a series of devices that has found its way out of the physics lab and into the hands of the chemist. Unlike infrared, NMR, and mass spectrometers, which quickly evolved into systems specifically designed for the analytical laboratory, only a few “packaged” laser-based systems have been successful. (Laser Raman spectroscopy and low-angle laser light scattering for particle size determination come to mind as two examples of successfully packaged systems.)
