"Physics and Electrochemistry of the Semiconductor and Its Application" is written with a view to helping researchers and students understand the basics of physics in developing a PEC solar cell, including the electrochemistry of metals and semiconductors, a knowledge required for understanding the basic principles of a PEC cell. While dealing with PEC cells, it is also necessary to understand some specific electronic and electrochemical methods needed to interpret the equivalent circuits of a PEC cell. Finally, it is also necessary to study the various applications of PEC cells, in addition to generating electrical power from solar rays, such as carrying out certain one-step syntheses that conventionally may comprise more than a few steps. Application of photochromism is another area needing development, in which the least effort has been made by present-day researchers. Dye-sensitized solar cells are also becoming very popular. This science has developed many highly efficient solar cells, which are also discussed.
The post graduate level textbook explores essential knowledge of semiconductor physics and electrochemistry in order to understand the larger subject of photoelectrochemical solar cells. The readers whose research focus is the electrochemistry of semiconductor would benefit most from this book. Learning from the author's own teaching experience, this book is written to have a diverse range of engineerign students understand physics, electrochemistry."
