Bringing together electrochemistry, condensed matter physics and quantum chemistry, this book stresses basic theoretical ideas rather than experimental methods, and modern developments rather than traditional macroscopic concepts. Its unifying approach integrates the underlying conceptual framework of statistical mechanics, quantum theory of metals, kinetics, etc with the facts of electrochemistry. This approach reveals the true nature of the subject, which touches on so many fields. Topics covered include electrochemistry, thermodynamics and electrostatics, statistical mechanics, structure of surfaces, interfaces, theories of the hydrated electron, diffusion and more.

It has been fashionable to describe electrochemistry as a discipline at the interface between the branches of chemistry and many other sciences. A perusal of the table of contents will affirm that view. Electrochemistry finds applications in all branches of chemistry as well as in biology, biochemistry, and engineering; electrochemistry gives us batteries and fuel cells, electroplating and electrosynthesis, and a host of industrial and technological applications which are barely touched on in this book. However, I will maintain that electrochemistry is really a branch of physical chemistry. Electrochemistry grew out of the same tradition which gave physics the study of electricity and magnetism. The reputed founders of physical chemistry-Arrhenius, Ostwald, and van't Hoff-made many of their contributions in areas which would now be regarded as electrochemistry. With the post-World War II capture of physical chemistry by chemical physicists, electrochemists have tended to retreat into analytical chemistry, thus defining themselves out of a great tradition. G. N. Lewis defined physical chemistry as "the study of that which is interesting." I hope that the readers of this book will find that electrochemistry qualifies.

Electrochemical technologies are an integral part of modern life. Because electrochemical reactions are coupled to electrical current, their rates are relatively easy to measure, control, and to exploit for work. Thus, methods based on electrochemical phenomena are ideal for sensors, energy storage and conversion, and microfabrication processes. Furthermore, the use of electricity for oxidation and reduction may allow clean production of chemicals. Concepts used to scale electrochemical systems are both similar to and different from those used for chemical systems. This text provides an introduction to the fundamentals that may allow understanding of existing electrochemical products and may inspire ideas for yet-to-be-invented products.

Silicon has been and will most probably continue to be the dominant material in semiconductor technology. Although the defect-free silicon single crystal is one of the best understood systems in materails science, its electrochemistry to many people is still a kind of "alchemy". This view is partly due to the interdisciplinary aspects of the topic: Physics meets chemistry at the silicon-electrolyte interface. This book gives a comprehensive overview of this important aspect of silicon technology as well as examples of applications ranging from photonic crystals to biochips. It will serve materials scientists as well as engineers involved in silicon technology as a quick reference with its more than 150 technical tables and diagrams and ca. 1000 references cited for easy access of the original literature.

Unread book in perfect condition.

This book is a brief introductory text of the fundamental electrochemistry that is essential for important biomedical areas including electrophysiology, biosensors and even gene technology. The book targets readers who generally lack a substantial background knowledge in physical chemistry or the basic concepts in electricity for understanding most of the electrochemical textbooks, monographs or research articles. The contents are expressed in a concise and concept-by-concept manner with basic material such as math or optional applications appended in the appendices. Hopefully, it will be a quick and efficient solution for those who are eager to understand, handle and even develop an electrochemical method or tool by themselves.

Here in one volume is a unique review addressing major events--both past and present--in electrochemistry. Thirty-nine chapters focus on topics including the foundations, organic and biochemical electrochemistry, electroanalytical chemistry, and industrial electrochemistry. Also covers electrosynthesis, electrode systems and pH measurement. Numerous photographs and biographical chapters are included on some of the noted electrochemists.
