Michael Quinten Books

Focusing on practical applications, this book provides an accessible introduction to the most commonly encountered optical phenomena. It aims to equip readers with essential knowledge and skills, making complex concepts easier to understand. Through clear explanations and real-world examples, it serves as a valuable resource for both students and professionals looking to deepen their understanding of optics in various contexts.

Filling the gap for a description of the optical properties of small particles with sizes less than 1000 nm and to provide a comprehensive overview on the spectral behavior of nanoparticulate matter, this is the most up-to-date reference on the optical physics of nanoparticle systems. The author, an expert in the field with both academic and industrial experience, concentrates on the linear optical properties, elastic light scattering and absorption of single nanoparticles and on reflectance and transmittance of nanoparticle matter.
