On the theory of photoadsorption kinetics of a-Se colloids: The thermal activation energy and compensation effect
Abstract
In this study, a model is developed to explain in microscopic terms the results obtained from thermally activated photoadsorption experiments in a-Se colloids. The observed compensation effect can be described for two different cases. At low efficiency adsorption, the process is controlled by the potential at the boundary layer. In the high efficiency adsorption case, the process is controlled by diffusion transport. © 1988 Steinkopff.
