The book is an up-to-date introduction to the fundamentals of the
initial stages of Electrocrystallization, which are dominated by
nucleation and growth of the first clusters of the new phase. It
offers a readable exposition of the topic, in simple terms,
providing a detailed theoretical description of the phenomena
involved. The most relevant aspects of the experimental studies of
electrochemical nucleation and growth are considered, as well,
including some important methods for acquiring and analyzing
experimental results.
Having specific properties quite different from those of bulk
materials, these small, nano-clusters have always attracted
considerable attention, and many sophisticated methods have been
developed for cluster studies. In spite of this, information on
small clusters can still be obtained by simple experiments, and the
book shows that Electrocrystallization is unique in this respect.
In this special case the phase change may be controlled
experimentally by controlling the voltage and current, two simple
and easily measurable electrical quantities. Certainly, this is
what makes electrochemical systems an attractive object of study
both from a scientific and from a practical point of view.
