This monograph presents the process of charge transfer in the traditionally independent fields of physics, chemistry and biology from a unified point of view. The numerous facets of charge transfer are presented coherently, emphasizing the common nature of phenomena which at first sight appear quite different. Detailed theoretical overviews are presented and phenomena such as redox, electrochemical and radiative processes, polarons, proton transfer and biological processes are discussed. All major results of the different processes in physics, chemistry and biology are discussed in detail with reference to their physical mechanisms, thereby allowing a unified conceptual approach to be applied. This unified approach to charge transfer science provides a useful tool for the increasing number of theoretical and experimental scientists involved in such areas as physical chemistry, electrochemistry, chemical physics, biophysics, biochemistry, solid-state and surface physics.

5.0 out of 5 stars
i want to be a quantum.,
By Zhangquan Peng (Changchun, China) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Charge Transfer in Physics, Chemistry and Biology: Physical Mechanisms of Elementary Processes and an Introduction to the Theory (Hardcover)
Electron transfer, a fundamental chemical process underlying all redox reactions, has been explained in detail, experimentally and theoretically.i have to say that it is an excellent book concerning quantum electrochemistry and quantum biology based on fundamental physics. After i have reviewed this book i wish i could be a electron, as a graduate student majoring electrochemistry.And i wish i had cherished one, too.
