Solid State Electrochemistry

Editorial Reviews

Review
"The graduate student who is beginning research..will find this book an excellent companion and introduction to where the battery field stands..Professionals who are just entering the field will also want a copy on their desks..I have no hestitation in recommending [it] to anyone interested in the electrochemistry of solids." M. Stanley Whittingham, Physics Today
"Authoritative and up-to-date.." A. Fry, Choice
"..an excellent introduction to the chemistry and electrochemistry of materials in solid-state cells." Michael Lerner, Materials Research Bulletin
"..this is an important and valuable addition to the libraries of electrochemists and solid state chemists alike." Bruce Parkinson, Journal of the American Chemical Society
Book Description
Significant advances in our understanding of the electrochemistry of the solid state have taken place over the last 30 years. The subject has grown rapidly and is now closer to the more established electrochemistry in liquid electrolytes than at any time since Faraday's pioneering work 150 years ago. Although several books have appeared dealing with ionically conducting materials from a structural point of view, very few texts are available which describe the physical electrochemistry of solids. The book is directed primarily at postgraduate students and other scientists and engineers entering the field for the first time; as well as those active in the areas of batteries, fuel cells, sensors and electrochromic devices, to which solid state electrochemistry makes a major contribution.
