Featuring balanced coverage of theory and applications, this resource for chemists, physicists, materials scientists, and engineers surveys recent advances in in-situ diffraction and spectroscopic methods in electrochemistry. The first of ten chapters by leading academics and researchers describes an application of the X-ray diffraction technique to the study of the structure-reactivity relationship in electrocatalysis. Other topics include (for example) UV-visible reflectance spectroscopy of thin organic films at electrode surfaces, and tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy Raman spectroscopy is a spectroscopic technique used in condensed matter physics and chemistry to study vibrational, rotational, and other low-frequency modes in a system.[1]  (TERS TERS Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy
TERS Tactical Event Reporting System
TERS Tactical Electronic Reconnaissance System
TERS Test and Evaluation Report Sheet (USAF) 
). Each chapter concludes with a discussion of possibilities for further research. Editor Alkire is affiliated with the Department of Chemical Engineering at the U. of Illinois, Urbana.
