Abstract
Although X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) requires a vacuum (Chap. 132 X-ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy), in situ electrochemical (EC-) XPS has been a long-standing dream not only for fundamental science, but also for a wide range of applications including fuel cells, rechargeable batteries, photocatalysts, and biological processes. In the present chapter, various in situ EC-XPS systems are introduced.
