Opis

This book brings together in a single volume the principles, practice and applications of the technology and places it in the context of other recent developments in optical fiber sensor technology. Relevant solid-state physics relating to fluorescent emission is reviewed to aid in materials selection all aspects of sensor design including detector circuit configurations are covered. Cross-referencing of systems with other temperature sensors and comparative evaluations with other sensor types are included.

Recenzje

A useful book for suppliers researching developments in instruments - Control and Instrumentation; We have in Fibre Optic Fluorescence Thermometry a comprehensive overview of an important area of Optical Sensing to satisfy the specialist in the field. For those requiring an introduction to the subject, it will also be found that the scene is set in the first few chapters in a useful and helpful way, and there will be literally hundreds of references to allow an i n-depth study of the subject to be made. - Measurement and Control
