The Long Reach of Electrochemistry: Semiconductors, Metallization and Energy Storage

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingConference contributionpeer-review

Abstract

Research in several different areas over the past half-century is briefly reviewed with some discussion on the evolution of equipment and techniques. Examples from our work on oxygen evolution on ruthenium and iridium and electrochromism in anodic iridium oxides in the 1970s and on lithium batteries in the 1980s are discussed. Topics in the science and technology of compound semiconductors range from epitaxial crystal growth to electrochemistry and nanopore formation. Some results are presented on electrodeposition of copper metallization including in-situ stress measurements and atomic force microscopy during deposition, and spontaneous morphology changes during room-Temperature aging. Electrochemical kinetics of vanadium redox reactions on carbon electrodes is discussed as well as state-of-charge monitoring and thermal stability of the positive electrode in vanadium flow batteries.
