Solid State NMR: Principles, Methods, and Applications

In one didactically uniform volume, this book covers experimental equipment and methodological concepts while providing numerous examples in biomaterials, polymers and inorganic substances. The topics covered range from theoretical background knowledge to practical applications and solutions. The whole is rounded off by a glossary, literature and a summary at the end of the chapters, making this a handy textbook for postgraduate courses.

Nota biograficzna:
The author graduated in Chemistry at the University of Freiburg. After completion of the PhD thesis in physical chemistry at the University of Stuttgart, he went for a postdoctoral stay to the Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot/Israel (Dept. of Chemical Physics). He returned to the University of Stuttgart, and – after completing the habilitation – became professor in Physical Chemistry.
The main research activities of the author are applications of solid–state NMR techniques for the characterization of different types of materials, comprising molecular and liquid crystals, polymers, ceramics, inclusion compounds (guest–host systems), biomembranes, and surface–modified silica and metal oxides.
