Electron Transfer - Fukuzumi, Shunichi

. .

Résumé :

Offers a clear understanding of the mechanisms and applications of electron transfer

Written by one of the top scientists in the field, this comprehensive book presents the central theories and mechanisms in electron transfer and provides an overview of several systems in nature where electron transfer is important. It also covers modern green applications dealing with electron transfer.

Beginning with an introduction to the subject, Electron Transfer: Mechanisms and Applications continues with a chapter covering the Marcus Theory of electron transfer. Other chapters look at: photosynthetic reaction center models...

Sommaire:
Shunichi Fukuzumi earned a bachelor's degree and PhD. degree in applied chemistry at Tokyo Institute of Technology in 1973 and 1978, respectively. After working as a postdoctoral fellow (1978-1981) at Indiana University in USA, he joined the Department of Applied Chemistry, Osaka University in 1981 and was promoted to a Full Professor in 1994. Professor Fukuzumi has authored over 600 scientific publications. He is the director of a SORST (Solution Oriented Research for Science and Technology) project. He is also the leader of a Global COE program, Global Education and Research Center for Bio-Environmental Chemistry that started in 2007....
