DESCRIPTION:
"This book needs an editor; its readers need patience." according to A. Witney. For a science text of this type, Sato's book is unusually difficult to read. Its awkward, imprecise, often ambiguous wording is distracting--I find myself asking, "What does he mean?" more often than I ask, "How does that science work out?" That said, the book is reasonably thorough (covering precisely what the title says it does) and a patient rea. Contents is good. But resolution of figures in ebook is too Kaz I have both of hardcover book and ebook for a purpose of presentation. Contents is good. But resolution of figures in ebook is too low as small letters are unreadable. Generally amazon's scientific and engineering ebooks have same problem.
This text, therefore, emphasizes the energy level concepts of electrons and ions rather than the phenomenological thermodynamic and kinetic concepts on which most of the classical electrochemistry texts are based. Electrochemisty at Metal and Semiconductor Electrodes covers the structure of the electrical double layer and charge transfer reactions across the electrode/electrolyte interface. The purpose of the book is to integrate modern electrochemistry and semiconductor physics, thereby, providing a quantitative basis for understanding electrochemistry at metal and semiconductor electrodes.Electrons and ions are the principal particles which play the main role in electrochemistry. This rationalization of the phenomenological concepts in terms of the physics of semiconductors should enable readers to develop more atomistic and quantitative insights into processes that occur at electrodes.The book incorporates many traditional disciplines of science and engineering such as interfacial chemistry,
