These volumes comprehensively illustrate the latest stage and development of chiral luminescence in science and technology, from the fundamentals to the applications of emerging circularly polarised luminescence properties and functions.
Comprehensive resource illustrating the latest stage and development of chiral luminescence in science and technology, from fundamentals to applications
Chiral Luminescence imparts a comprehensive understanding for chiral materials bearing circularly polarized luminescence (CPL) functions, including molecules, oligomers, polymers, chiral metal organic complexes, and chiral biochemical materials, with guidance on how to promote and control this kind of luminescence towards the development of advanced photonic materials and devices such as chiroptical and electronic devices, next-generation displays, and others.
The book covers detailed information on the molecular design, synthesis, and polymerization methods of chiral luminescent materials, the evaluation of chiroptical properties represented by CPL, novel spectroscopic instruments and techniques, the fabrication of chiral luminescent devices such CPL-OLED, a theoretical evaluation, and potential applications.
With insight from leading academics and industrial researchers in the field, Chiral Luminescence includes information on: Optical resolution and chiroptical properties of partially overlapping carbazolophanes and developments in CPL research using cyclodextrins Synthesis and chiroptical properties of helical, conjugated polymers and twisted molecules, and chiroptical and magnetooptical properties of porphyrin compounds Principles of CPL measurement systems and advances in measurement methods, and intense and sign-invertible CPL Development of organic light-emitting diodes using aggregation-induced enhanced CPL perylene diimides Binding constants as fundamental physical properties for quantitative treatments of sensing processes in supramolecular systems
Providing far-reaching coverage of chiral luminescence and its many applications, Chiral Luminescence is a must-read resource for a variety of chemists and engineers who wish to understand the state-of-the-art development in this optical science.

Additional Delivery Information (and some really important bits):
UK Delivery
Orders for delivery in the UK are despatched by Courier and Signed For delivery services and will normally be delivered to you within a few days of placing your order. Signed Books are shipped in our specially made book mailing cartons, with the books themselves wrapped in paper to protect them. Sometimes we may ship your order in several parts, particularly if you have 'Pre-Order' titles in your order or titles which are held in stock with our publishing partners.
The Really Important Bit: Because we use courier and signed for delivery services, please use an address at which your parcel can be signed for during the normal working day, for example, you may want to have your order delivered to your work address if you're not at home during the day.
First Item @ £3.75 (sometimes a shipping supplement may be added for particularly heavy books or specific postcodes*)
2 Items & over @ £5.00 in total
Another Really Important Bit: There are a number of Postcodes in the UK for which we will need to charge a shipping supplement, this will be calculated once we know the size and weight of the shipment. For these orders we will contact customers to agree a suitable and economic method of shipping. There may also be additional time required for delivery to some areas of the United Kingdom. Where possible, we will ship single book orders (under 2kg) by Royal Mail to all UK postcodes. Multiple book orders and books over 2kg are shipped via APC Overnight, regardless of Postcode.
Overseas Delivery
Shipments to EU countries:
First Item @ £15.00 (sometimes a shipping supplement will be added for particularly heavy books)
2 Items & over @ £30.00 in total
A really, really important Brexit bit: From 1st January 2021 shipments to EU addresses may incur additional costs which could be requested by Fed Ex at the time of delivery. These costs may vary from country to country and are not within our control and will be in addition to the costs paid to us for your delivery.
