This book provides a thorough treatment of the fundamental factors that govern electron transfer at surfaces. Interfacial electron transfer processes are at the heart of catalysis, electrochemistry, and photoimaging, and have great potential for future applications in solar energy conversion and the photodegradation of environmentally hazardous chemicals. Surface Electron Transfer Processes is the first book to integrate approaches for electrochemistry, ultrasensitive laser spectroscopic studies of surfaces, and ultrahigh vacuum studies of model interfaces. The result is a detailed description of reaction mechanism, including a comprehensive treatment of interfacial electronic transitions. A wide range of surface types and structures are covered. Metals, semiconductors, nanostructures, and discrete states are treated in a unifying manner. . Surface Electron Transfer Processes is organized like a tutorial, taking the reader through the basic theory required to understand the reaction dynamics, and proceeding with a comprehensive presentation of all aspects of the electronic and nuclear factors controlling surface reactions. Analysis of the assumptions and shortcomings of theoretical models leads naturally to discussion of experimental results. Subsequent chapters begin with introductory reviews of experimental studies and then bring the reader up-to-date on the most current methods for studying surface reactions and reaction mechanisms. This book is recommended for researchers and graduate students in chemistry, chemical engineering, and physics. The extensive literature citations will make it a valuable reference source for years to come.
