Fundamental Studies of Surfaces Processes and Trace Analysis Using Solid Electrodes

摘要

The objective of the work carried out under this grant was to perform physical electrochemical and electroanalytical studies at various kinds of solid electrodes. The physical electrochemical investigations were divided into studies of heterogeneous electrode kinetics, underpotential deposition and electrocatalysis. The electroanalytical work areas involved trace analysis of solutions using hydrodynamic voltammetry and of solutions and gases using porous electrode structures. Novel porous electrode techniques were developed for the analysis of trace species present in both liquid and gas phases. Two novel and simple electronic circuits were developed for electrochemical applications.
