A study of the effects of surface energetics and surface oxide layers on the cyclic voltametry of metallocenes at nonilluminated p- and n-InP electrodes has been completed. Nearly ideal semiconductor/solution interfaces can be prepared, it was concluded, and the voltammetry of metallocenes is a way to probe electron transfer across this interface under different surface energetic conditions. Single crystals of WSe/sub 2/ were grown by chemical vapor transport. A computer program was written to collect voltametric data and calculated convoluted currents, and it is used to examine the kinetics of charge transfer across the semiconductor solution interface.
