Abstract
A solid state electrochemical cell, Na0.75CoO2/sodium beta-alumina/met al grid, is presented which is capable of producing a beam of sodium v apour in UHV. Cells such as these have potential applications as a sou rce of dopants in semiconductor fabrication. Electrochemical measureme nts and a new spectroelectrochemical technique provide mechanistic inf ormation regarding sodium electro-generation.
