Springer Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry 42

An analysis of recent developments in several key interfacial electrochemical systems in fuel cell electrocatalysis, electrosynthesis, and electrodeposition. Written by international experts, chapters cover several key emerging electrochemical technologies. From the Back Cover MODERN ASPECTS OF ELECTROCHEMISTRY No. 42 Edited by Constantinos Vayenas University of Patras, Greece Topics in Number 42 include: The electrochemistry and electrocatalysis of Ruthenium in regards to the development of electrodes for Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) fuel cells Breakthroughs in Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) anodes and cathodes leading to improved electrocatalysis Electrocatalysis of the electrochemical reduction of CO2 on numerous metals The interfacial phenomena of electrodeposition and codeposition, and the need for new theoretical analyses of the electrode-electrolyte interface Advantages of scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) in understanding the basics of catalysis, electrocatalysis and electrodeposition The role of electrochemistry in emerging technologies including electrodeposition and electroforming at the micro and nano levels, semiconductor and information storage, including magnetic storage devices, and modern medicine From reviews of previous volumes: "This long-standing series continues its tradition of offering high quality reviews of established and emerging subject areas, together with the less common aspects of electrochemical science … Deserves a place in electrochemistry libraries and should prove useful to electrochemists and related workers." -Chemistry and Industry "Continues the valuable service that has been rendered by the Modern Aspects series." - Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry "Will definitely be of much use to researchers in the field of electrochemistry… The editors of this well-produced volume deserve all appreciation for maintaining the excellent standard of the series." - Bulletin of Electrochemistry "Extremely well-referenced and very readable … Maintains the overall high standards of the series." - Journal of the American Chemical Society
