Congratulations Peter

Peter just had a book chapter published with the Royal Society of Chemistry.  The Chapter entitled “The Use of Emission and Resonance Raman Spectroscopy to Examine Structural Changes upon Photoexcitation in Metal Complexes”  is part of Photofunctional Materials: Photoactive Coordination Complexes (part of the Inorganic Materials Series) edited by Paul A Scattergood.  The chapter lays out the principles of resonance Raman spectroscopy and its use in understanding excited state structure; including the use of quantum calculations and wavepacket dynamcs to establish structural changes.

The cover shows two ball and stick coordination complexes connected by a rightward arrow, illustrating a photoinduced ligand ejection from a transition metal complex.
