Fundamentals of Molecular Photonics

In order to understand the concept of Molecular Photonics, it is crucial for the reader to undertake a study of fundamental principles. Chapter 1 Fundamentals of Molecular Photonics includes four sections dedicated to optics, the molecular field theory, the radiation field theory, and the interactions between the molecular field and the radiation field. Fundamental principles are often treated in an introductory chapter, leading the reader to think that they are of little importance and that they can be understood with ease. This trend of relegating the fundamentals to a brief introduction is getting increasingly common in natural...
