It may be argued that silicon, carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and iron
are among the most important elements on our planet, because of
their involvement in geological, biol- ical, and technological
processes and phenomena. All of these elements have been studied
exhaustively, and voluminous material is available on their
properties. Included in this material are numerous accounts of
their electrochemical properties, ranging from reviews to extensive
monographs to encyclopedic discourses. This is certainly true for
C, H, O, and Fe, but it is true to a much lesser extent for Si,
except for the specific topic of semiconductor electrochemistry.
Indeed, given the importance of the elect- chemical processing of
silicon and the use of silicon in electrochemical devices (e. g. ,
sensors and photoelectrochemical cells), the lack of a
comprehensive account of the electrochemistry of silicon in aqueous
solution at the fundamental level is surprising and somewhat
troubling. It is troubling in the sense that the
non-photoelectrochemistry of silicon seems "to have fallen through
the cracks," with the result that some of the electrochemical
properties of this element are not as well known as might be
warranted by its importance in a modern technological society. Dr.
Zhang's book, Electrochemical Properties of Silicon and Its Oxide,
will go a long way toward addressing this shortcoming. As with his
earlier book on the elect- chemistry of zinc, the present book
provides a comprehensive account of the elect- chemistry of silicon
in aqueous solution.
