Abstract:
The frontispiece shows a representative graph of a mixed electrogenerated chemiluminescence system, resolved by both the potential applied to initiate the reactions and the distinct spectral distribution of the three emitters. The Review by Paul S. Francis et al. on page 456, outlines recent innovation in the area of potential-resolved ECL, which can be exploited to selectively elicit light from multiple excited states within a single chemical species, multiple emitters sharing a common co-reactant, or distinct ECL systems within the same solution.
