Electrochemistry in vacuo:
Ion studies on thin ice films

Using ultra high vacuum techniques and molecular and ion beams it is possible to construct and study the electrochemical double layer on electrode surfaces immersed in solvents. Case studies using hexane and water solvents and Cs+ and H2O+ ions enabled the determination of solvent dielectric constants, ion mobility, and structural and phase changes in the solvents as a function of temperature.
