1996 | 414 Pages | ISBN: 3527294228 | PDF | 16 MB
Electrochemical processes and methods are basic to many important scientific disciplines, materials science and nanotechnology being only two keywords. For the first time in more than twenty years this volume presents a critical survey of the foundations, methodology and applications of electrochemical phase formation and growth processes. Written by a team of three internationally renowned authors, it is an invaluable source of information for all scientists concerned with electrocrystallization of metals or the in-situ characterization of electron-conducting surfaces. Not only the numerous illustrations (partly in colour) but also the vast number of references covering the literature up to and including 1995 make this volume indispensable for every laboratory working in electrochemical or materials science. Content: Chapter 1 Fundamentals of Electro?crystallization of Metals (pages 1-7): Chapter 2 Crystalline Metal Surfaces (pages 9-39): Chapter 3 Underpotential Deposition of Metals ? 2D Phases (pages 41-148): Chapter 4 Initial Stages of Bulk Phase Formation (pages 149-199): Chapter 5 Growth of Crystalline Faces (pages 201-261): Chapter 6 Metal Deposits and Surface Structuring and Modification (pages 263-313): Chapter 7 Outlook (page 315): Chapter 8 Appendices (pages 317-342):
