Molecular Reaction Dynamics is the study of chemical and physical
transformations of matter at the molecular level, The first half of the
book describes experimental techniques for initiating and probing
reaction dynamics and the essential insights gained. The second part
explores key areas including photoselective chemistry, stereochemistry,
chemical reactions in real time, and chemical reaction dynamics in
solutions and interfaces. Typical of the new challenges are molecular
machines, enzyme action, and molecular control.With problem sets included,
this book is aimed at advanced undergraduate and graduate students
studying chemical reaction dynamics, as well as physical chemistry,
biophysics, and materials science.
O641.12/Z63,
Theory and application of quantum molecular dynamics,
John Zeng Hui Zhang., World Scientific, 1999.
This book provides a detailed presentation of modern quantum theories for
treating the reaction dynamics of small molecular systems. Its main focus
is on the recent development of successful quantum dynamics theories and
computational methods for studying the molecular reactive scattering
process, with specific applications given in detail for a number of
benchmark chemical reaction systems in the gas phase and the gas surface.
The volume includes such topics as methods for calculating rovibrational
states of molecules, fundamental quantum theory for scattering
(nonreactive and reactive), modern time-independent computational
methods for reactive scattering, general time-dependent wave packet
methods for reactive scattering, dynamics theory of chemical reactions,
dynamics of molecular fragmentation, semiclassical description of
1
quantum mechanics, and also some useful appendices. The book is intended
for the reader to not only understand the molecular reaction dynamics from
the fundamental scattering theory, but also utilize the provided
computational methodologies in their practical applications. It should
benefit graduate students and researchers in the field of chemical
physics.

O641.12/F962,
Electron correlations in molecules and solids,
Peter Fulde., Springer-Verlag , 1995.
Electron Correlations in Molecules and Solids bridges the gap between
quantum chemistry and solid-state theory. In the first half of the text
new concepts are developed for treating many-body and correlation effects,
combining standard quantum chemical methods with projection techniques,
Greens-function methods and Monte-Carlo techniques. The second half deals
with applications of the theory to molecules, semiconductors, transition
metals, heavy-fermion systems, and the new high-Tc superconducting
materials.
O641/W423, Valency and bonding,
A Natural Bond Orbital Donor-Acceptor Perspective
Frank Weinhold, Clark R. Landis., Cambridge University Press, 2005.
This graduate level text presents the first comprehensive overview of
modern chemical valency and bonding theory, written by internationally
recognised experts in the field. The authors build on the foundation of
Lewis- and Pauling-like localized structural and hybridization concepts
to present a book that is directly based on current ab-initio
computational technology. The presentation is highly visual and intuitive
throughout, based on the recognizable and transferable graphical forms
of natural bond orbitals (NBOs) and their spatial overlaps in the
molecular environment. The book shows applications to a broad range of
molecular and supramolecular species of organic, inorganic and bioorganic
interest. Hundreds of orbital illustrations help to convey the essence
of modern NBO concepts for those with no extensive background in the
mathematical machinery of the Schrödinger equation. This book will appeal
to those studying chemical bonding in relation to chemistry, chemical
engineering, biochemistry and physics.
O64-532/I61/1996,
Electronic density functional theory,
John F. Dobson, Giovanni Vignale, Mukunda P. Das.,
2
Plenum Press
, 1998.
Density functional theory is an approach to predicting the behavior of
many interacting particles, and a major application is in the study of
many-electron systems. The 26 lectures draw from computational chemistry,
condensed matter physics, and other realms to report recent developments.
After introductory material, they consider groundstate energy
functionals; excited state, time-dependent theories, and the Van der
Waals interaction; and special systems. Among specific topics are the
exchange-correlation hole, adiabatic coupling in the helium and beryllium
series, hydrodynamics in the Thomas-Fermi-Dirac-von- Weizscker
approximations, and the airy gas as an edge electronic structure. Four
additional poster papers are represented by abstracts on such topics as
"ab initio" calculations of magnetic interactions in magnetic metal
alloys via the LSDF approach, and quantitative electron momentum
spectroscopy of solids. Annotation c. by Book News, Inc., Portland, Or.

O641/B393, The potential distribution theorem and models of molecular
solutions, Thomas L. Beck, Michael E. Paulaitis, Lawrence R. Pratt.,
Cambridge University Press , 2006.
An understanding of statistical thermodynamic molecular theory is
fundamental to the appreciation of molecular solutions. This complex
subject has been simplified by the authors with down-to-earth
presentations of molecular theory. Using the potential distribution
theorem (PDT) as the basis, the text provides an up-to-date discussion
of practical theories in conjunction with simulation results. The authors
discuss the field in a concise and simple manner, illustrating the text
with useful models of solution thermodynamics and numerous exercises.
Modern quasi-chemical theories that permit statistical thermodynamic
properties to be studied on the basis of electronic structure calculations
are given extended development, as is the testing of those theoretical
results with ab initio molecular dynamics simulations. The book is
intended for students taking up research problems of molecular science
in chemistry, chemical engineering, biochemistry, pharmaceutical
chemistry, nanotechnology and biotechnology.
O642.1/S875,
Chemical thermodynamics of materials,
Svein Stølen, Tor Grande,
J. Wiley
, 2004.
Chemical Thermodynamics of Materials is a comprehensive introduction,
examining both macroscopic and microscopic aspects of the subject. Aimed
at students and researchers in Materials Science, Solid State Chemistry
and Physics and Mineralogy, the book applies the theory of thermodynamics
to a broad range of materials; from metals, ceramics and other inorganic
3
materials to geological materials. Focusing on materials rather than the
underlying mathematical concepts of the subject, this book will be ideal
for the non-specialist requiring an introduction to the energetics and
stability of materials. Macroscopic thermodynamic properties are linked
to the underlying miscroscopic nature of the materials and trends in
important properties are discussed. The later chapters discuss the main
experimental and theoretical methods for deriving thermodynamic
properties of materials with emphasis placed on methodology.
O642/S646,
Basic chemical thermodynamics,
E. Brian Smith.
,
Clarendon Press
, 1977.
This widely acclaimed text presents a clear, simple and concise
introduction to chemical thermodynamics. An examination of equilibrium
in the everyday world of mechanical objects provides the starting point
for an accessible account of the factors that determine equilibrium in
chemical systems. This straightforward approach leads students to a
thorough understanding of the basic principles of thermodynamics, which
are then applied to a wide range of physico-chemical systems. The book
also discusses the problems of non-ideal solutions and the concept of
activity, and provides an introduction to the molecular basis of
thermodynamics.

O645/B469,
Molecular theory of solutions,
Arieh Ben-Naim.,
Oxford University Press
, 2006.
This book presents new and updated developments in the molecular theory
of mixtures and solutions. It is based on the theory of Kirkwood and Buff
which was published more than fifty years ago. This theory has been dormant
for almost two decades. It has recently become a very powerful and general
tool to analyze, study and understand any type of mixtures from the
molecular, or the microscopic point of view. The traditional approach to
mixture has been, for many years, based on the study of excess
thermodynamic quantities. This provides a kind of global information on
the system. The new approach provides information on the local properties
of the same system. Thus, the new approach supplements and enriches our
information on mixtures and solutions.
O645/S617,
Single molecule detection in solution,
Ch. Zander, J. Enderlein, R.A. Keller,
4
Wiley-VCH
, 2002.
The detection of single molecules opens up new horizons in analytical
chemistry, biology and medicine. This discipline, which belongs to the
expanding field of nanoscience, has been rapidly emerging over the last
ten years.
This handbook provides a thorough overview of the field. It begins with
basics of single molecule detection in solution, describes methods and
devices (fluorescense correlation spectroscopy, surface enhanced Raman
scattering, sensors, especially dyes, screening techniques, especially
confocal laser scanning microscopy). In the second part, various
applications in life sciences and medicine provide the latest research
results.
This modern handbook is a highly accessible reference for a broad
community from advanced researchers, specialists and company
professionals in physics, spectroscopy, biotechnology, analytical
chemistry, and medicine. Written by leading authorities in the field, it
is timely and fills a gap - up to now there exists no handbook concerning
this theme.
O647.11/P965 , Properties of single organic molecules on crystal
surfaces,
Peter Grutter, Werner Hofer, Federico Rosei., Imperial College Press,
2006.
The aim of this book is to provide an overview of the study of the complex
interactions of single organic molecules on surfaces. The book begins with
a number of introductory chapters on surfaces, imaging techniques, and
theory that lay the groundwork for understanding the later sections on
molecular surface interactions and applications. Its strength is in the
sections that deal with the issue at its heart: scanning tunneling
microscopy/ spectroscopy (STM) of organic molecules on metallic and
semiconductor surfaces. The bulk of the book is focused on this issue,
and the initial introductory material provides a good basis for
understanding the more complex issues of later chapters.
胶体与界面化学
O647/B988,
Physics and chemistry of interfaces,
Hans-Jürgen, Karlheinz Graf, Michael Kappl.,
Wiley-VCH, 2003.
Serving as a general introduction to surface and interface science, this
book focuses on essential concepts rather than specific details, on
intuitive understanding rather than learning facts. The text reflects the
5
fact that the physics and chemistry of surfaces is a diverse field of
research and shows this in its Interdisciplinary conceptual design.
Once the most important techniques and methods have been introduced,
readers will be able to apply simple models to their own scientific
problems. Furthermore, manifold high-end technological applications from
surface technology, biotechnology, or microelectronics illustrate the
basic scientific treatment.
The authors address advanced students of
chemistry, physics, materials science, chemical engineering and related
subjects with a basic knowledge of natural sciences and mathematics, since
the mathematical calculations are thoroughly explained and made
comprehensible for the reader. As such, non-specialists in surface
science who want to learn more about this important subject will also
benefit from the book.
O647.3/C746,
Surface
area
and
porosity
determinations
by
physisorption,
James B. Condon.
,
Elsevier
, 2006.
Surface Area and Porosity Determinations by Physisorption is a practical
guide for industry or academics to the measurement of surface area and
pore size using the tool of physical adsorption. Starting with a brief
description of what physical adsorption is and the raw data that is
obtained. The instrumentation for measuring this isotherm is described
in some details. Recommendations are presented as to what instrumentation
would be most appropriate for a particular application. An appendix of
current commercial instruments is included.
O648.1/T136,
Disperse systems,
Makoto Takeo. , Wiley-VCH
, 1999.
Interesting applications for disperse systems exist in many areas of
modern technology. Weight and cost savings achieved in engineered foams
for complex designs and computer-modeled optical pigments for creating
astounding effects in coating are but two examples of such diverse
applications. In addition to the cost and material reductions already
achieved in existing applications, future applications of disperse
systems are ripe with many heretofore-undeveloped products possessing
unprecedented properties. A thorough understanding of the relationship
between microscopic composition and the measurable macroscopic behaviour
of disperse systems is necessary for technologists to exploit the unique
properties of these systems. With such an understanding, the reader will
be equipped to develop new products efficiently and to effectively achieve
required material properties.

O643.2/L415,
Combustion physics,
Chung K. Law.,Cambridge University Press
, 2006.
In the past several decades, combustion has evolved from a scientific
discipline that was largely empirical to one that is quantitative and
predictive. These advances are characterized by the canonical formulation
of the theoretical foundation; the strong interplay between theory,
experiment, and computation; and the unified description of the roles of
fluid mechanics and chemical kinetics. This graduate-level text
incorporates these advances in a comprehensive treatment of the
fundamental principles of combustion physics. The presentation
emphasizes analytical proficiency and physical insight, with the former
achieved through complete, though abbreviated, derivations at different
levels of rigor, and the latter through physical interpretations of
analytical solutions, experimental observations, and computational
simulations. Exercises are mostly derivation in nature in order to further
strengthen the student’s mastery of the theory. Implications of the
fundamental knowledge gained herein on practical phenomena are discussed
whenever appropriate. These distinguishing features provide a solid
foundation for an academic program in combustion science and engineering.
O646.1/P578,
