Abstract:

The report describes the improvement of rapid scanning spectrophotometry capabilities, the application of rapid scanning spectrophotometry to electrochemistry, and the development and testing of thin metal films deposited on transparent substrates as optically transparent electrodes. The principle examples illustrating the utility of the spectrophotometer in electrochemical studies were the oxidation and reduction of a number of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Author
