Marcel Dekker Inc. 1999. - 345 p.
As with many areas of molecular science, over the past decade inorganic photochemistry has entered a period where emphasis has shifted from the study of "simple" atomic and molecular systems to the study of complex supramolecular systems. This shift has occurred partly because the fundamentals of molecular inorganic chemistry are now reasonably well understood, and partly because synthetic methods and tools for spectroscopic characterization of complex materials have improved drastically over the past decade. The fourth volume of the Molecular and Supramolecular Photochemistry series, which can be read as a reflection of this shift, focuses on new developments in the field of supramolecular inorganic chemistry.
