1st Edition
by Derek Pletcher (Editor), Zhong-Qun Tian (Editor), David Williams (Editor)
Martin Fleischmann was truly one
of the ‘fathers’ of modern electrochemistry having made major
contributions to diverse topics within electrochemical science and
technology. These include the theory and practice of voltammetry and in situ
spectroscopic techniques, instrumentation, electrochemical phase
formation, corrosion, electrochemical engineering, electrosynthesis and
cold fusion.
While intended to honour the memory of Martin Fleischmann, Developments in Electrochemistry
is neither a biography nor a history of his contributions. Rather, the
book is a series of critical reviews of topics in electrochemical
science associated with Martin Fleischmann but remaining important
today. The authors are all scientists with outstanding international
reputations who have made their own contribution to their topic; most
have also worked with Martin Fleischmann and benefitted from his
guidance.
Each of the 19 chapters within this volume begin with
an outline of Martin Fleischmann’s contribution to the topic, followed
by examples of research, established applications and prospects for
future developments.
The book is of interest to both students and
experienced workers in universities and industry who are active in
developing electrochemical science.
