by Ian Dunkin

Published 31 October 1999
Matrix isolation is a technique for studying short-lived atoms and molecules at very low temperatures. This book offers detailed practical advice on how to carry out matrix-isolation experiments, and provides an introduction to the subject. The text covers a range of topics, from how to build a matrix-isolation laboratory from scratch, to detailed instructions for carrying out experiments. This book is intended for postgraduate students, and researchers in academia and industry using matrix isolation techiques. It should also be of value to researchers in chemistry and related fields who are considering whether matrix isolation can play a part in their own research.
