Laser and Fiber Optic Gas Absorption Spectroscopy

'For years, I have been looking forward to a book like this. It puts together all the important elements needed for laser and fiber optic spectroscopy, in particular for gas sensing applications. With lots of scientific insights, rigorous theoretical analysis and design details, students, researchers and practicing engineers would definitely benefit from reading it.' Wei Jin, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

'Laser and Fiber Optic Gas Absorption Spectroscopy is an enormously valuable survey of modern spectroscopic techniques, covering fundamentals of spectroscopy with the same care is the most recent spectrometer designs. Written by one of the most accomplished authorities in the field, this book will serve well as a textbook for the newcomer to the field and as a reference for established scientists and engineers. References to countless original articles and reviews, together with many original contributions by the author, help the reader obtain an excellent overview of the field. Highly recommended!' Hans-Peter Loock, University of Victoria

'Molecular infrared absorption spectroscopy has become a pervasive tool in many branches of science and engineering, drawing upon a broad range of opto-electronic methods and skills. This book is a unique attempt to present an overview of the technology, from fundamentals to the state-of-the-art, and it offers an efficient entrée to the field for new users and experienced researchers alike.' Hugh McCann, The University of Edinburgh
