Multiple-scan voltammetry and OCP: Archaeometric tools for dating archaeological bronzes
2021
[EN] The application of a multiple-scan strategy to nanosamples taken from 18 cross-sections of Bronze Age arms and armour, as well as two Roman coins using two solid-state electrochemical techniques, the voltammetry of immobilized microparticles (VIMP) and open circuit potential measurements (OCP) is described. The voltammetric responses in contact with aqueous acetate buffer can be attributed to the reduction of cuprite with variable degree of compaction and crystallinity revealing significant differences in the gradient of such properties with depth. Such differences are also revealed by "dry" OCP measurements connecting points in the cross section near and separated from the corrosion l…
A Chemical Approach to the Modelling of Band Gap of Passive Films for Corrosion Studies
2015
Photocurrent Spectroscopy (PCS) has gained a large consideration in the last decades as in situ technique for the characterization of semiconductors and photoconducting passive film/electrolyte junctions being able to provide information on the location of characteristic energy levels like: flat band potential (Ufb), internal photoemission threshold (Eth) and band gap value (Eg)
