Eleventh International Conference on Raman Spectroscopy

Comprises the proceedings of ICORS XI, held at the University of London, September 1988. The contributors to this collection present the state of the art in Raman spectroscopy. Papers are divided into 19 sections: Raman theory; vibrational analysis and molecular structure; nonlinear Raman spectroscopy; SERS, surface, and interfacial phenomena; inorganic materials and matrices; the solid state; semiconductors and superconductors; phase transitions and effects of temperature and pressure; low-dimensional and amorphous solids; resonance Raman spectroscopy; time-resolved Raman scattering and transient species; biological pigments; biological systems and medical applications; macromolecules and proteins; lipids and biomembranes; band shapes and dynamics; band intensities and molecular conformation; Raman microscopy; and new techniques. Post-deadline papers appear in the final section.
