"Electrochemisty at Metal and Semiconductor Electrodes" covers the
structure of the electrical double layer and charge transfer
reactions across the electrode/electrolyte interface. The purpose
of the book is to integrate modern electrochemistry and
semiconductor physics, thereby, providing a quantitative basis for
understanding electrochemistry at metal and semiconductor
electrodes.
Electrons and ions are the principal particles which play the
main role in electrochemistry. This text, therefore, emphasizes the
"energy level concepts" of electrons and ions rather than the
phenomenological thermodynamic and kinetic concepts on which most
of the classical electrochemistry texts are based. This
rationalization of the phenomenological concepts in terms of the
physics of semiconductors should enable readers to develop more
"atomistic" and "quantitative" insights into processes that occur
at electrodes.
The book incorporates many traditional disciplines of science
and engineering such as interfacial chemistry, biochemistry, enzyme
chemistry, membrane chemistry, metallurgy, modification of solid
interfaces, and materials' corrosion. The text is intended to serve
as an introduction for the study of advanced electrochemistry at
electrodes and is aimed towards graduates and senior undergraduates
studying materials and interfacial chemistry or those beginning
research work in the field of electrochemistry.
