Abstract

The consequences of heat treatment in production of glassy
carbon has been investigated by scanning electron microspopy,
ESCA and electrochemical methods. Correlation has been found
between the temperature of treatment and the physical appearance
and electrochemical reactivity. Glassy carbon appears to be a small
band gap semiconductor with isolated well type surface states
produced by residues of the surface oxidation processes.
