Fluorophores in Fluorescence Spectroscopy brings together the basics of fluorescence spectroscopy and the use of fluorophores for the first time in a single volume. Fluorophores are crucial in fluorescence phenomena, and especially in the application of fluorescence techniques in various areas such as imaging, sensors, and probes. Among the many resources on fluorescence spectroscopy currently available, this is the first to go into detail on fluorophores, serving as a useful tool for the practical application of fluorophores in fluorescence spectroscopy. Written by experts in their various fields of research, the chapters cover everything from fluorophore properties, to synthesis, to applications in biology, physics, and materials science. The book also discusses the molecular aspects that lead to desired levels of fluorescence, as well as the suitability of specific fluorophores for their use in fluorescence spectroscopy.
