Full Description
Comprehensive introduction to the field of electrochemistry, covering the fundamentals and showing many current applications and real-life examples
Fundamentals of Electrochemistry presents the fundamentals of the field and gives a detailed overview of the most important applications, including batteries and fuel cells, as well as topics like corrosion and electrochemical material science, with numerous case studies showing how theories are applied in practice through real-life examples.
The first part of the book presents the fundamentals, written at an introductory BSc level. The second part provides an overview of the experimental methods in electrochemistry; this part, as well as the remaining parts, aims at more advanced BSc students, as well as MSc and PhD students. The third part focuses on electrochemical material science. The fourth part shows a wide variety of current applications in electrochemistry.
Written by a highly qualified and prominent professor with extensive teaching and research experience in the field, Fundamentals of Electrochemistry explores topics including:
Interfacial electrochemistry, covering vibrational spectroscopy at surfaces, ellipsometry, surface plasmon resonance, spectroscopy of core shell electrons, X-diffractions, mass spectrometry, and quartz crystal microbalance
Electrodeposition, covering metal deposition on foreign materials, galvanic processes, and electrodeposition of oxides
Modified electrodes, covering electrochemistry of self-assembled monolayers, electronically conductive polymers, and organic-inorganic hybrid materials
Electroanalytical methods and electrochemical sensors, covering dynamic electrochemical methods, amperometric sensors, and voltammetry under special mass transport conditions
Thermodynamics of electrochemical reactions, covering cell voltage to electrode potentials
The unique combination of content makes Fundamentals of Electrochemistry the perfect companion for BSc, MSc, and PhD students in the field of electrochemistry.
