Fluorescent Particles in Forensic Engineering examines the significant part that fluorescent particles play in forensic investigations. It provides in-depth insight into the applications of fluorescent particles for the detection of evidence, the examination of crime scenes, and the development of new methods in forensic science. The reader will come away with a comprehensive understanding of how fluorescent particles can be adapted to a variety of forensic applications.

It explores the novel use of luminous materials to revolutionize the process of evidence detection, analysis of crime scenes, and forensic investigations It covers a wide variety of vital issues, such as the synthesis and characterization of fluorescent particles, as well as their usage in trace evidence analysis, latent fingerprint detection, bloodstain pattern analysis, and ballistics It delves into the use of modern imaging and spectroscopy techniques for the visualization and analysis of these particles, giving forensic scientists and engineers powerful tools that can be used to solve complex cases It offers a unique interdisciplinary approach, covering both theory and practice

This book serves as an excellent resource for forensic and materials professionals, researchers, and students.
