Marcus R.K., Broekaert J.A.C. (Eds.) Glow Discharge Plasmas in Analytical Spectroscopy

Wiley, Chichester, 2003, 482 pages, ISBN: 0471606995This multi-author, edited volume includes chapters which deal with both basic and highly complex applications. Glow discharge devices are now being used in very novel ways for the analysis of liquids and gases, including molecular species detection and identification, an area that was beyond the perceived scope of applicability just ten years ago. It is expected that the next decade will see a growth in the interest and application of glow discharge devices far surpassing the expectations of the last century.Responding to the rapid growth in the field
