Electron Spectroscopy for Chemical Analysis (ESCA) and Electrode Surface Chemistry

  • Chapter

Abstract

The experimental objective of electrodic studies is to define electrode surface reactions through the measurable parameters of current, electrode potential, and reactant concentration at the electrode-electrolyte interface. However, the chemical characterization of electrosorbed and electrodeposited products on the electrode surface has been hampered by the lack of molecular specificity in the electrochemical measurements. In addition, the electro-catalytic behavior of electrode surfaces has remained a difficult parameter to quantify with conventional electrochemical measurements. The application of spectroscopic techniques such as ESCA, which can yield molecular information relevant to the electrode surface chemistry, is providing new insight into these problems.
