Abstract

A cell is described which allows in situ incident-light microscopy to be used for the analysis of solid state electrochemical reactions studied by abrasive stripping voltammetry. The cell provides the possibility to screen solid compounds with respect to their electrochromic properties without requiring the preparation of special electrodes on transparent and conducting materials. Silver octacyanomolybdate(IV) and silver octacyanotungstate(IV) have been used to study the performance of the cell because both compounds exhibit a stable electrochromic and voltammetric behaviour.
