Welcome to Los Angeles – the entertainment capital of the world, and cultural hub of the West Coast, boasting over 300 museums and unparalleled good weather. We are pleased to venture into this city again for the 208th Meeting of The Electrochemical Society. This major international conference will be held at the Westin Bonaventure Hotel and Suites, located in downtown Los Angeles, and will include 39 topical symposia consisting of 1,335 technical presentations.

You are invited to participate not only in the technical program, but also in the other social events planned for the meeting. Prior to the Sunday Evening Get-Together, plan to attend the latest in our “... For the Rest of Us” series entitled "Looking for Lithium Ions: New Approaches for Investigating Function and Failure of Lithium-Ion Battery Materials," presented by Dr. Clare Grey of the State University of New York at Stony Brook. Don’t miss the opening plenary session on Monday morning, featuring Dr. Nathan Lewis, 2002 George L. Argyros Professor of Chemistry at the California Institute of Technology. Join us on Wednesday to honor Dr. Robert A. Rapp, the 2005 Olin Palladium Award winner at the Honors and Awards Session.

Researchers are using AFM to characterize a variety of mate-rials for many different applications. This workshop will focus on the prin-ciples of AFM including instrumenta-tion, operation, different imaging modes, and optimizing AFM system performance. At the end of the class, specific examples of AFM as it pertains to electrochemistry applications will be discussed. The workshop is ideal for those who are both new to AFM, as well as those that want to increase their understanding of the instrumen-tation, scan modes, and advanced imaging techniques.

#2–Basics of Impedance Spectroscopy

P. Agarwal (Fideris Test Solutions) and M. Orazem (University of Florida)This course will provide an introduc-tion to impedance spectroscopy. The

attendee will develop a basic under-standing of the technique and how it can be applied to study a broad variety of electrochemical processes. The top-ics to be covered include: 1. the moti-vation for using impedance spectros-copy advantages as compared to other transient techniques and the condi-tions under which its use is ideally suited; 2. the type of information that can be extracted from impedance mea-surements, including the limitations of the technique; 3. proper selection of experimental parameters; 4. appli-cation of electrical circuit analogues; 5. applications to different systems including corrosion, characterization of electronic materials, fuel cells, and transport through membranes such as skin.

#6–Nanomaterials for Nanotechnology

Z. L. Wang (Georgia Institute of Technology)Global nanotechnology initiatives are inspiring a lot of research in nanomaterials, which are the basis of future technology. It has been widely believed that whoever controls materi-als will control the future of science and technology. Characterization of nanophase materials raises challenges not only about analysis tools but also about fundamental methods. This lec-ture is about the advanced techniques used for characterization of nanoma-terials. Details will be given about the structure analysis of nanoparticles, nanotubes, and nanowires. The lecture mainly focuses on the determination of particle shape, crystallography of self-assembly, in-situ shape trans-formation, and phase transforma-

tion. Characterization and property nanomeasurements of nanotubes and nanowires will also be illustrated.

#7–Solid-State Lighting

A. Srivastava (General Electric Global Research) and I. Ferguson (Georgia Institute of Technology)Solid-state lighting is an exciting new technology that has the potential to far exceed the energy efficiencies of conventional lighting. Approximately one quarter of the world’s electric-ity use is for lighting, and substan-tial energy savings can be realized if affordable, efficient solid-state lighting one day becomes a reality. Solid-state lighting is based on light-emitting diodes (LEDs) for illumination. White light can be produced by mixing the light from multiple single-color LEDs, or by using phosphor blends that absorb near-UV or blue light from an LED and convert it to white light. This short course will cover solid-state light-ing (SSL) technology with an emphasis on GaN LEDs and phosphors for use in LEDs.

This short-course develops the fun-damental thermodynamics and electrocatalytic processes critical to polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFC). In the first part, we will discuss the relevant half-cell reactions, their thermodynamic driving forces, and their mathematical foundations in electrocatalytic theory (e.g., Butler-Volmer equations). Subsequently, this theoretical framework will be applied to catalyst characterization and the evaluation of kinetic parameters. In the second part of the course, we will illuminate the different functional requirements of actual PEMFC compo-nents and present basic in-situ diag-nostics (Pt surface area, shorting, H2 crossover, and electronic resistance). This will be used to develop an in-depth understanding of the various voltage loss terms that constitute a polarization curve. Finally, we will apply this learning to describe the principles of fuel cell catalyst activity measurements, the impact of uncon-trolled-operation events (e.g., cell reversal), and the various effects of long-term materials degradation.

Exhibitors as of Press-Time



Lecturers and Award WinnersPlenary LecturerNathan Lewis will deliver the plenary lecture on Monday, October 17, 0830h, entitled, “Scientific Challenges in Sustainable Energy Technology,” in the San Francisco Room, Level 2.

NATHAN LEWIS, 2002 George L. Argyros Professor of Chemistry, has been on the faculty at the California Institute of Technology since 1988, and has served as professor since 1991. He has also served as the Principal Investigator of the Beckman Institute Molecular Materials Resource Center at Caltech since 1992. From 1981 to 1986, he was on the faculty at Stanford, as an assistant professor from 1981 to 1985 and a tenured associate professor from 1986 to 1988. Dr. Lewis received his PhD in chemistry from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Dr Lewis has been an Alfred P. Sloan Fellow, a Camille and Henry

Dreyfus Teacher-Scholar, and a Presidential Young Investigator. He received the Fresenius Award in 1990, the ACS Award in Pure Chemistry in 1991, the Orton Memorial Lecture Award in 2003, and the Princeton Environmental Award in 2003. He has published over 200 papers and has supervised approximately 50 graduate students and postdoctoral associates. His research interests include light-induced electron transfer reactions, both at surfaces and in transition metal complexes; surface chemistry: photochemistry of semiconductor/liquid interfaces; novel uses of conducting organic polymers and polymer/conductor composites; and the development of sensor arrays from these polymers that use pattern recognition algorithms to identify odorants, mimicking the mammalian olfaction process.

...For the Rest of UsClare Grey will deliver the “...For the Rest of Us” lecture entitled, “Looking for Lithium Ions: New Approaches for Investigating Function and Failure of Lithium-Ion Battery Materials,” on Sunday, October 16, 1830-1930h, in the San Jose Room, Level 2.

CLARE P. GREY received her BA (1987) and DPhil (1990) degrees in chemistry from the University of Oxford. At Oxford she worked with Tony Cheetham and Christopher Dobson on the application of solid-state NMR to problems in solid-state chemistry. She then spent a year as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of Nijmegen in The Netherlands with Wiebren Veeman, where she developed new NMR meth-ods for measuring internuclear distances in systems with quadrupolar nuclei. She was a visiting scientist at the DuPont Experimental Station in Wilmington (1992-1994) and worked with Alexander Vega on

NMR theory and on the application of NMR to molecular sieves and inorganic-organic composites. She joined the faculty at SUNY Stony Brook in 1994 as an assistant professor, and was promoted to a full professor in 2001.

Dr. Grey uses solid-state NMR spectroscopy, in combination with other characterization techniques such as diffraction, to understand the role that local structure plays in controlling the physical properties of a wide range of materials. Current studies include the investigation of electrode materials for lithium-ion rechargeable batteries, anionic conductivity in oxides, and the ion-exchange and sorption properties of soil minerals, molecular sieves, and layered materials.

WPAFB in Dayton, Ohio. In 1963, he started as an assistant professor in the Department of Metallurgical Engineering at Ohio State University, where he rose through the ranks to become a Distinguished University Professor (now Emeritus). During his employment at Ohio State University, he enjoyed two sabbatical leaves to France, with a Guggenheim Scholarship to Grenoble and a Fulbright Scholarship to Toulouse. He retired from teaching in 1995, but has continued a research program to the present.

Over a span of 45 years, Robert Rapp has been involved in research comprising several different top-ics, many involved with corrosion and electrochemistry. He started out with research in solid-state electro-chemistry, point defects in inorganic compounds, and high-temperature corrosion, subjects learned from Carl Wagner. Because he was teaching chemical (process) metallurgy at Ohio

State University, Dr. Rapp especially wanted to do some research that would have an impact on industry. So many studies were published on the oxygen solubility and diffusivity in liquid metals (Cu, Ni, Fe, Pb, Sn, Ag) using solid-state coulometric titration methods. From these measurements, his group devised a means to infer the n-type and p-type electronic conduc-tivity contributions in the oxygen-conducting solid electrolytes. They proposed and patented a method to electrochemically deoxidize induc-tion-stirred metals, especially copper. They also dealt with fluoride-ion conducting solid electrolytes, and S. Reddy established the first and only data for the solubilities and diffusivi-ties of atomic fluorine in solid copper and solid nickel.

From an interest to clarify and impede the “hot corrosion” of met-als by thin fused salt deposits, his group devised a system to define and measure the acid-base parameters

2005 Olin Palladium AwardRobert Rapp will deliv-er his award address, “Hot Corrosion of Materials,” as part of the Honors and Awards Session on Wednesday, October 19, 0830h, in the San Jose Room, Level 2. A wine and cheese reception will be held in honor of

Dr. Rapp that evening at 1800-1845h, in the Catalina Foyer, Level 3.

ROBERT RAPP graduated with honors in metallurgical engineering from Purdue University in 1956. He attend-ed graduate school in metallurgical engineering at Carnegie-Institute of Technology, now Carnegie-Mellon, receiving an MS in 1958 and a PhD in 1960. Following a post-doctoral Fulbright Scholarship year with Carl Wagner at the Max Planck Institut for Physical Chemistry in Goettingen, Germany (1959-60), he served as a First Lt. and research metallurgist at



of fused sodium sulfate. Principally, Y. Zhang made measurements of the solubilities of many oxides (iron oxides, NiO, Cr2O3, CoO, Al2O3, SiO2) in fused Na2SO4. With K. Goto, Rapp proposed a fundamental mechanism (negative solubility gradient criterion) to explain the occurrence of hot cor-rosion that has won general approval. Many students participated in a series of various electrochemical measure-ments that clarified the details of hot corrosion.

Especially with colleague J. Hirth and student G. Yurek, Rapp clari-fied the nature and mechanism of displacement reactions in the solid state, leading to the ASM Howe Gold Medal for a publication on this sub-ject. Hirth and Rapp also worked with several students on the experiments and interpretations of diffusion bar-rier layers in the solid state. They also developed theoretical descriptions for the kinetics of growth of multi-layered diffusion and scaling products.

Over a number of years, Rapp’s group, especially with G. Raynaud, built and demonstrated the use of an environmental hot-stage electron microscope. In the 1980’s, they were able to film in real time the external surface during the growth of scales on metals, especially for the oxidation of Fe and Cu at 700-1050C. The observa-tions clearly showed the role of screw dislocations intersecting the external oxide scale surface in provided the ledges necessary for scale growth.

Over a decade or more, Rapp’s group demonstrated the process and utility for the codeposition of two (or more) elements into a diffusion coating on metals via a halide-activated pack cementation process. They showed how to engineer the pack contents to codeposit Cr+, Al, or Cr+, Si onto Fe or Ni alloys. Similar processes were designed and demonstrated, especially by student B. Cockeram for the silicid-ing of Ti, Ti aluminides, and other refractory metals, including carbon. With B. Pieraggi, Rapp introduced a novel and logical explanation for the annihilation of cation vacancies in the growth of cation-diffusing scales. The mechanism, involving the climb of interfacial misfit and misorienta-tion dislocations was extended to also treat metal interdiffusion reactions. Finally, Y. Zhang and Rapp completed research on the acid-base chemistry and the oxide solubilities in cryolite-base fused salt systems. A general method for modeling the complex

chemistry of the Na-Al-F-O system was developed. Their interpretations also provided stereochemistry for the various solutes of the oxides in cryo-lite.

At Ohio State University, Robert Rapp has advised or co-advised 46 PhD students, 45 MS students, and 40 post-docs and visiting researchers. He has published 265 journal articles and courses, and authored 20 patents. He has received many awards for his teaching and research, and has been named a Fellow to four U.S.-based (ECS, ASM, TMS, and NACE) and two foreign (French Society for Materials and British Institute of Corrosion) societies. He has received the ECS Linford Teaching Award and the Outstanding Achievement Award of the HTM Division. He served as chair of the ECS Corrosion Division and an Associate Editor of the ECS Journal. He has received the top awards for research achievement from TMS, ASM, BIC, and NACE and received the TMS Educator Award. He received an honorary PhD from Institute Polytechnique of Toulouse.

Dr. Rapp will be introduced by his colleague Gerald Frankel, Director of the Ohio State University Fontana Corrosion Center.

University Pierre and Marie Curie, and CNRS, Paris, France). Dr Marcus graduated in chemistry from the Ecole Nationale Supérieure de Chimie de Paris, and received his PhD in physi-cal sciences from the University Pierre and Marie Curie (1979).

Dr Marcus’s major contributions to electrochemical surface science and corrosion can be categorized in three areas: effects of adsorbed sulphur on metal dissolution and passivation; pas-sivity and surface analysis of passive films; and electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy investigation of reactive metal surfaces and of passive films and their breakdown.

Prof. Marcus’s surface science approach of corrosion has allowed him to make significant advances in the understanding of corrosion phe-nomena at the molecular or atomic scale. In his research, Dr Marcus has always put the emphasis on the elu-cidation of the mechanisms at the molecular or atomic scale, and on the link between nanoscale processes and macroscopic behavior.

Dr Marcus is currently on the editorial board of four journals : Corrosion Science, Corrosion and Materials, Corrosion Engineering, Science and Technology, and Electrochimica Acta. He is the author or co-author of over 300 papers and book chap-ters. He is the Editor of “Corrosion Mechanisms in Theory and Practice,” and the co-editor of “Analytical Methods in Corrosion Science and Engineering.” Dr Marcus is currently chair of the European Federation of Corrosion Working Party on Surface Science and Mechanisms of Corrosion and Protection, member of the EFC Science and Technology Advisory Committee, and chair of the Scientific and Technical Committee of CEFRACOR (the French Corrosion Center).

He is the chair of the next Gordon Conference on Aqueous Corrosion (2006).

Dr Marcus has participated very

actively in the activities of The Electrochemical Society. He has pub-lished several papers in the Journal, attended numerous ECS meetings, and given several talks at these meetings over the last 20 years; he has also co-organized three ECS symposia.

2005 Electrodeposition Division Research AwardPhilip N. Bartlett will receive the Electrodeposition Research Award of the Electrodeposition

Division during the Electrodeposition Luncheon and Business Meeting on Wednesday, October 19, at 1215h, in the San Bernardino Room, Lobby Level. He will present his award address “Templated Electrodeposition,” as part of the Symposium on Electrodeposition of Nanoengineered Materials I, on Tuesday, October 18, at 1400h in Santa Anita C, Lobby Level.

PHILIP N. BARTLETT received a BA in chemistry from the University of Oxford in 1978. He was awarded a British Petroleum Scholarship to study for a PhD in photoelectrochemistry under the supervision of W. John Albery FRS at Imperial College in London and received his PhD in 1981, the same year in which he attended his first ECS meeting. Following his PhD, Professor Bartlett was awarded a Research Fellowship from the Royal Society for the Exhibition of 1851 to work on modified electrodes at Imperial College. In 1984 he was appointed to a lectureship in physi-cal chemistry at the University of Warwick and in 1991 as professor of physical chemistry at the University of Bath. Since 1993 he has been at the University of Southampton where he is Professor of Electrochemistry and currently the Deputy Head of School responsible for research.

Professor Bartlett’s research interests are in the applications of electrochem-istry in the areas of bioelectrochem-istry, sensors, and nanomaterials. Current research in his group includes work on the design of electrode surfaces for enzyme and coenzyme electrochemistry for applications in biosensors and bioelectrosynthesis. These studies particularly focus on the application of modified electrodes and conducting polymers in bioelec-trochemistry and include studies of coupled diffusion and reaction in these systems and the modelling of

electrode responses.

In the area of nanomaterials the Bartlett group has been active in the applications of templated elec-trochemical deposition to produce materials containing regular arrays of uniform pores. In this work they use either lyotropic liquid crystalline phases or assemblies of colloidal parti-cles as templates to direct the electro-chemical deposition of metals, poly-mers, and oxides. The work on lyo-tropic liquid crystalline phases utilizes the established phase behavior of lyo-tropic liquid crystals to allow precise control over the architecture of metal films at the nanometer scale. Thus by using the hexagonal liquid phases of non-ionic surfactant systems, platinum films with regular arrays of uniform pores with controlled diam-eters between 1.7 and 3.5 nm can be produced as highly optically reflec-tive coatings with exceptionally large surface areas. This is a generic method that can be applied to a wide range of different metals and which has signifi-cant potential applications in sensors, in electrocatalysis, in batteries, and in producing films with unique mag-netic properties. This work is being commercialized by Nanotecture Ltd. a spin-out company from the University set up by Professor Bartlett and his colleagues in Southampton, Professors Attard and Owen Work in the Bartlett group on colloidal templates has con-centrated on the unique effects of the regular 50 to 1000 nm scale porous structure of these films on the opti-cal, magnetic, and superconducting properties of thin metal films. By controlling the nanostructure of these films, it is possible to manipulate their physical properties, and this opens up a number of potentially interest-ing opportunities in the area of sen-sors, magnetic devices, and surface enhanced Raman scattering.

Professor Bartlett is a vice-presi-dent of the International Society for Electrochemistry and a member of Faraday Council of the Royal Society of Chemistry. He has received a num-ber of awards including the Tajima Prize of the ISE (1992), the Armstrong Lectureship from the Society of Chemical Industry (1994), and the Geoffrey Barker Medal from the Royal Society of Chemistry (2004).

Fellows of The Electrochemical SocietyThe 2005 Class of Fellows of The Electrochemical Society will be introduced and honored during the Honors and Awards Session on Wednesday, October 19, starting at 0830h, in the San Jose Room, Level 2. Pictured below, along with their citations, the 2005 ECS Fellows are as follows.

RADOSLAV ADZIC For his outstand-ing contributions to fundamental aspects of electrocatalysis, underpotential deposi-tion, and single crystal electrochemistry.

Radoslav Adzic is a tenured chemist, and leader of the Electrochemistry Group at Brookhaven National Laboratory, whose staff he joined in 1992. He was educated at the University of Belgrade in Belgrade, Yugoslavia, receiving a doctoral degree in chemistry in 1974. He became a Research Director and the Director of the Institute of Electrochemistry in Belgrade, and professor at the University of Belgrade. On several occasions during this period, he was a visiting scientist and visiting professor at Case Western Reserve University and Brookhaven National Laboratory. He is a mem-ber of several professional societ-ies, including The Electrochemical Society, and is on the editorial boards of two journals.

His honors include election as Correspondent Member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts in 1993, the Annual Award of Belgrade for Natural Sciences in 1983, the Medal of the Serbian Chemical Society on its 100th anniversary in 1997, and the Science and Technology Award of Brookhaven National Laboratory in 2005.

Dr. Adzic’s research encompasses the areas of surface electrochemistry and electrocatalysis; his findings have been published in over 190 papers. His early work focused on demon-strating the catalytic activities of electrode surfaces modified by metal monolayers deposited at underpoten-tials for a whole range of important electrocatalytic reactions. Further studies explored structural effects in electrocatalysis, particularly in hydrogen electrosorption, oxidation of

small organic molecules, and oxygen-reduction kinetics on single-crystal electrode surfaces. At Brookhaven Laboratory, he undertook structural studies of metal monolayers using synchrotron radiation surface X-ray scattering techniques and scanning tunneling microscopy, and applied them to identify the structure of active surface phases during electro-catalytic reactions. These studies he complemented using several in situ spectroscopic methodologies to char-acterize metal monolayers and reac-tion intermediates.

Most recently, Dr. Adzic has focused on the fundamentals of fuel-cell electrocatalysis, as well as on applied aspects, in particular expanding a new concept involving the reduction of the electrocatalysts to a monolayer of sur-face atoms; this innovative approach was successfully illustrated by devel-oping supported platinum monono-layer electrocatalysts for hydrogen- and carbon- monoxide-oxidation and for oxygen reduction.

JIM L. DAVIDSON For pioneering research, patents, education and application materials, processes, and indus-trial standards for microelectronic devices and sensors based on silicon, diamond, and nanocarbon layers.

Jim L. Davidson is presently a pro-fessor electrical engineering and of materials science and engineering at Vanderbilt University, and Director of the Vanderbilt Microelectronics Laboratory. Previously in his career, he was Manager of Advanced Process Development and Director of Product Assurance at Harris Semiconductor, Inc., Vice-President of Operations at InSouth Microelectronics Corp., and a professor at Auburn University where he was also Associate Director of the Alabama Microelectronics Center.

Professor Davidson has led an interesting career – more correctly put – three careers: corporate technol-ogy developer and executive; high-tech entrepreneur; and academician researcher. He has been demonstrably successful in all. His seminal innova-tions have advanced electronic mate-rials, devices, and processes ranging from ICBM radiation hardened guid-ance and control integrated circuits to the first MEMs devices, to the technol-ogy for the airbag deployment sensor to junctionless electron emission cold




cathode diamond switches for next generation electronics.

At Harris Semiconductor he made major contributions to the advance-ment of silicon technology enabling radiation hardened ICs to enter the mainstream of solid-state electronics (and stay there) and serve as the basis for advanced analog circuits and the pervasive shrink push that demanded and continues to require monolithic device isolation as silicon device dimensions go below 100 nanometers.

Along the way, he pioneered and led developments in what became the MEMs technology, having made a resonant beam capacitor device in 1968, one of the first ever microelec-tromechanical devices, for a classified program that met mission objectives but was necessarily obviously unher-alded. In the 1980s, extensions of this technology, as documented in his pat-ent record, became the basis for the MEMs sensors such as utilized for the crash airbag controller circuits.

It should be noted that Prof. Davidson served several years on the JEDEC Committee – the electronics industry panel that sets the standards for semiconductor electronics – in the formative years of the establish-ment of the quality specifications for modern electronics, where the fun-damental requirements known in the industry as the “Mil Specs” 883, 38510 and the like (for military specifica-tions, which actually also serve as the reference for all grades of electronic devices) were established.

In another interesting example of unpublicized technological signifi-cance, he led the failure analysis team that diagnosed and solved a critical and widespread systemic electronics circuit failure that, for obvious reasons was never disclosed, had shut down the deployed guidance circuitry in one of our major nuclear deterrent weapons system at the height of the cold war. The solution and timely fix led to package assembly quality procedures still in place today for all electronics.

He did pioneering project work in the area of electronic parts obsoles-cence, performing one of the first studies ever connecting system IC content with suppliers with produc-tion plans, performing seminal work on methodology related to component obsolescence in the fast paced world of solid-state electronics.

He now heads a team of profes-sors, professionals, and graduate students in the R&D area sometimes categorized as “beyond silicon.” It is widely recognized that new electronic materials and their practical develop-ment will be essential for 21st century electronics to maintain the perfor-mance enhancements now expected and demanded by industry, defense, and consumers. By applying diamond and nanocarbon layers, he and his colleagues are creating a new genera-tion of electronic devices and sensors, while educating the next generation of engineer and scientist.

Dr. Davison has over 40 ECS publi-cations and proceedings papers (from 1967 to present); over 200 other pub-lications and proceedings papers; and over ten seminal patents, including device isolation, original MEMS, and diamond vacuum FET.

DEREK PLETCHER For services to elec-trochemistry over 40 years – in education, research, and develop-ment.

Derek Pletcher was born in North London and studied chem-

istry at the University of Sheffield, receiving a PhD in 1967. After graduation, he immediately joined the Electrochemistry Group at the University of Southampton and has remained there since. He became a full professor in 1993 and is presently the Head of the Electrochemistry and Surface Science Section of the School of Chemistry. His research interests extend from fundamental electro-chemistry, through electrochemi-cal engineering, to the applications of electrolysis; his papers cover the mechanism and kinetics of electron transfer and coupled chemical reac-tions, the electrochemistry of organic and inorganic molecules including metal complexes and organometal-lics, electrocatalysis, power sources, applications of microelectrodes, gas sensors, electrosynthesis, the electrodeposition of metals, electrode materials, cell design and perfor-mance, and effluent treatment. A major theme has been the enhance-ment in the understanding of indus-trial processes and the improvement in their performance; this has led to collaborations with many industrial laboratories and extensive consulting with companies in both Europe and North America. Derek Pletcher is the author of approximately 300 techni-cal papers in international journals and approximately 20 reviews. He has presented invited lectures throughout Europe and North America as well as Japan, Pakistan, South Africa, and South America.

Dr. Pletcher has been an enthu-siastic teacher committed to both improving and extending training in electrochemistry. In addition to his teaching in Southampton and his supervision of more than 80 PhD students, he has pioneered courses for industrial participants. These include the Summerschool “Instrumental Methods in Electrochemistry” (a laboratory-based course presented regularly in Southampton since 1969 and attended by over 1,000 scientists and engineers). He has run courses on various aspects of applied electro-




chemistry (in the U.S., in conjunc-tion with the Electrosynthesis Co) and in-house courses tailored to the needs of particular companies. He is also the author or co-author of four influential texts on electrochemis-try. “Industrial Electrochemistry” has served for many scientists and engineers as their introduction and reference text to the applications of electrochemistry, from chemicals pro-duction to effluent treatment, power sources and sensors. “Instrumental Methods in Electrochemistry” has been widely used for teaching voltam-metry and related techniques, while “A First Course in Electrode Processes” has formed the basis of introductory courses in electrochemistry. “A First Course in Ion Permeable Membranes” is the first book to attempt to bring together diverse aspects of the science and technology of this important class of separators.

Dr. Pletcher has been a mem-ber of The Electrochemical Society since the early 1970s and has also contributed to the work of the Electrochemistry and Electrochemical Technology Groups in the UK and the International Society of Electrochemistry. For five years, Derek Pletcher was the Editor of the Journal of Applied Electrochemistry and remains on its editorial board as well as that of Electrochemical Communications. He has organized a substantial number of international conferences in both Europe and North America, particular-ly seeking to bridge the gap between academic and industrial research, for example through the International Forum on Electrolysis in the Chemical Industry held annually in Florida for 17 years.

Mark Williams received his

BA, BS, and MS at West Virginia University, and his PhD in engineer-ing in 1985 from the University of California (UC) at Berkeley. After graduation, he worked as a research engineer at UC Berkeley where he supervised doctoral students in sur-face chemistry and separation science. Subsequently, he worked as a research




engineer at AMOCO Production Company and at CONOCO, Inc., where he conducted theoretical modeling and experimental research into surfactant and colloidal chemis-try. At present, he is the Distributed Generation Technology Manager at the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) National Energy Technology Laboratory (NETL), where he is responsible for budget, planning, and outreach for the stationary power fuel cell program of the DOE’s Office of Fossil Energy. This includes the world’s largest high temperature fuel cell programs. He is also an adjunct professor at West Virginia University, the University of Utah, and a faculty fellow at UC Irvine.

Dr. Williams was involved in the creation of SECA – the Solid State Energy Conversion Alliance – an over $750 million, 10-year program to commercialize solid oxide fuel cells for stationary, transportation, and military applications by reduc-ing their cost to below $400/kW. He also co-founded the new High Temperature Electrochemistry Center – HiTEC – at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. HiTEC provides research funding for universities, national laboratories, and industry for electrochemical technology for fuel cells, electrolyzers, storage devices, and membranes. SECA and HiTEC are two of the three programs that will be providing a major source of high-temperature electrochemistry research funding in the world for the next decade. In addition, Dr. Williams also contributed to the third major source of funding through the Hybrids Program, a program based on the high electrical efficiency of fuel cell-turbine hybrids.

Dr. Williams was one of the first to electrochemically model and assess the world’s (U.S. and Japan) molten carbonate fuel cell (MCFC) technol-ogy. The models used were developed with the help of Institute of Gas Technology. Results of the modeling permitted informed decisions in the DOE MCFC program.

Dr. Williams has served an active leadership role in the electrochemical community as a member of ECS and as a member of the executive com-mittee of the ECS High Temperature Materials Division. He has given the opening keynote lecture at each of the nine ECS-sponsored symposia on Solid Oxide Fuel Cells, held bien-nially since 1989, and chaired many

sessions at these and other ECS-spon-sored symposia. He also organized and chaired the first session on High Temperature Membranes at the Conference on Separation Technology for Energy Conversion Systems, and has chaired fuel cell sessions at many meetings of the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE) and American Chemical Society (ACS). Dr. Williams twice chaired the prestigious Fuel Cell Seminar Committee (2002 and 2003). His other professional affiliations include memberships in the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) and the American Institute of Chemical Engineers (AIChE).

Dr. Williams has been an invited lecturer in the fuel cell area at the Brookings Institution, and serves on the editorial board of the International Processing Journal. He assists in pre-senting fuel cell short courses, such as the Fuel Cell Technology Institute, and has directed the development and publication of the internationally-acclaimed “DOE Fuel Cell Handbook” since 1994. He has also participated in many nationally-televised live and taped programs on fuel cell technol-ogy. He served as the first chair of the ASME’s PTC 50 Committee, the first effort on fuel cell performance test codes, and participated in the Fuel Cells Standard Summits.

Dr. Williams has served as an asso-ciate member or advisor to the U. S. Fuel Cell Council, the Distributed Power Coalition of America, the Connecticut Global Fuel Cell Center, and the Public Fuel Cell Alliance; as coordinator/host of AIST meetings in the U.S. and Japan; as representative to GRI Power Generation Advisory Group; as a fuel cell panelist at IEEE conferences; and as DOE representa-tive to the Alliance to Commercialize Carbonate Fuel Cell Technology, SOFC Commercialization Group, and the Fuel Cell Commercialization Group. He is an ex-officio member of Texas Fuel Cells and California Stationary Fuel Cell Collaborative. He has served as the requested evaluator of the fuel cell programs of various nations, including Spain, Finland, and Mexico. He has represented the DOE in many international conferences and inter-national agreements of cooperation in the electrochemistry and fuel cells area, including those with Japan (Agency of Science and Technology), Argentina, Peru, Brazil, Mexico, Canada (Trilateral Agreement),

European Community (Fuel Cell Annex to the DOE-EC Science and Technology Agreement), Russia (U.S.-Russian Bilateral Agreement), New Zealand, Great Britain, Poland, Norway, Finland, Puerto Rico, and Germany.

Dr. Williams has published over 75 papers in peer-reviewed journals, con-ference proceedings, and book chap-ters, and has given several hundred invited plenary and keynote lectures at national and international confer-ences, symposia, and seminars. He is the holder of several fuel cell and electrochemical technology patents, including seminal patents for fuel cell/turbine hybrid systems for very high efficiency power generation. In 2004, he received a Recognition Award from ASM International; and in 2003, Dr. Williams received the inaugural Pathfinder Award of the U.S. Fuel Cell Council for his 18 years of dedicated government leadership to the fuel cell industry.
