OSTI ID:5202729
The first part of the book gives a current introduction to photoelectrochemistry, discussing some of the outstanding achievements accomplished in recent years. A review of the physics of semiconductors and pn junctions includes the band model of semiconductors, the optical effects, surface states and insulators. This is followed by a chapter on techniques for the characterization of semiconductors, focussing on the characterization of the interface in photoelectrochemical cells using the dielectric properties. The second part of the book covers X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, variability of conduction due to the extent of doping and techniques for thin film deposition. The spectral characterization of a semiconductor is also considered, using photoacoustic and photothermal spectroscopy. A review of molten salt electrolyte systems followed by the preparation of chemicals through photoelectrochemical solar cells brings the reader up to date on the latest progress in this field. The last part of the book covers the basic instrumentation required for the photoelectrochemical work and its application to band gap measurement.
