This thesis presents the results and discussion of the investigation of the effects of Brönsted bases on the kinetics and thermodynamics of two proton-coupled electron transfer processes: the mediated oxidation of glutathione and the electrochemical oxidation of hydroquinone. Pr…

Electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical techniques were employed to investigate the redox characteristics of dyes for dye sensitized solar cells (DSCs) adsorbed at the surface of fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) and FTO TiO2 electrodes. In this work are studied Ru-based dyes su…

This thesis is concerned with the deposition of nanoparticle films onto boron-doped diamond and tin-doped indium oxide (lTO) surfaces and the characterisation of the films using electron microscopy, powder diffraction methods and quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) data. The redox…
