If you have read any and found it good, please recommend it.
Thanks, but it's too costly. Let me see if I can borrow it from somewhere.ZapperZ said:"UV-VIS Spectroscoppy and Its Applications" by H.H. Perkampus (Springer).
This is a classic 1992 book that had been translated several years ago.

UV-Visible Spectroscopy is a technique used in analytical chemistry to measure the absorption and transmission of light by a sample at different wavelengths in the ultraviolet and visible regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.
UV-Visible Spectroscopy can provide information about the electronic structure of molecules, such as the presence of conjugated systems or the identification of functional groups. It can also be used to determine the concentration of a sample, as well as the purity and stability of a compound.
UV-Visible Spectroscopy works by passing light of a specific wavelength through a sample and measuring the amount of light that is absorbed. The absorption spectrum is then plotted, with peaks corresponding to the wavelengths that are absorbed by the sample. The intensity of these peaks can provide information about the concentration of the sample or the presence of specific functional groups.
UV-Visible Spectroscopy is commonly used in pharmaceutical, environmental, and food industries for quality control and analysis. It is also used in research for the analysis of biological samples, such as proteins and nucleic acids, and in the study of reaction kinetics and mechanisms.
Some advantages of UV-Visible Spectroscopy include its non-destructive nature, fast analysis time, and its ability to analyze a wide range of samples. It is also a relatively simple and cost-effective technique compared to other analytical methods.
