The author examines optical transitions between the lowest-lying electronic states in molecular oxygen and how these transitions respond to perturbation, either from an organic molecule or from the plasmon field of a metal nanoparticle. We live on a planet filled with light and oxygen. The interaction between these two components forms the basis of excited state chemistry spanning the fields of synthetic organic chemistry, materials chemistry, molecular biology, and photodynamic treatment of cancer. Still, the fundamental ways in which oxygen is affected by light is an active subject of research and is continually being developed and rationalized. In this book, readers will learn that singlet oxygen, the excited state of oxygen that exhibits unique chemical reactivity, can be selectively made via direct optical excitation of oxygen in a sensitizer-free system. Readers will also discover that this approach can perturb living cells differently depending on the singlet oxygen ?dose?. 410 0$aSpringer Theses, Recognizing Outstanding Ph.D. Research,$x2190-5053 606 $aPhysical chemistry 606 $aAtomic structure   606 $aMolecular structure  606 $aNanochemistry 606 $aBiophysics 606 $aBiological physics 606 $aPhysical Chemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C21001 606 $aAtomic/Molecular Structure and Spectra$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P24017 606 $aNanochemistry$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/C33000 606 $aBiological and Medical Physics, Biophysics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P27008 615 0$aPhysical chemistry. 615 0$aAtomic structure  . 615 0$aMolecular structure . 615 0$aNanochemistry. 615 0$aBiophysics. 615 0$aBiological physics. 615 14$aPhysical Chemistry. 615 24$aAtomic/Molecular Structure and Spectra. 615 24$aNanochemistry. 615 24$aBiological and Medical Physics, Biophysics. 676 $a546.72159 700 $aBregnhøj$b Mikkel$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0782481 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910337930103321 996 $aElectronic Transitions of Molecular Oxygen$91736759 997 $aUNINA
