The results show that relatively thin anodic Nb2O5 films (thickness < 11 nm) present a frequency-dependent n-type semiconductor behavior, which can be described by the theory of amorphous semiconductor. The Schottky barrier, formed at the a-Nb2O5/electrolyte interface, affects the deposition rate of metals with equilibrium potentials more positive than the flat band potential (UMe/Mez+ > U-FB). Then, the dependence of density of states on the oxide thickness and anodization conditions leads to different extents of the band bending, affecting directly the rate of electron transfer.}, keywords = {J (WoSType)}, cin = {ISG-3 / CNI}, ddc = {540}, cid = {I:(DE-Juel1)VDB43 / I:(DE-Juel1)VDB381}, pnm = {Grundlagen für zukünftige Informationstechnologien}, pid = {G:(DE-Juel1)FUEK412}, shelfmark = {Electrochemistry}, typ = {PUB:(DE-HGF)16}, UT = {WOS:000236001800009}, doi = {10.1007/s10008-005-0090-y}, url = {https://juser.fz-juelich.de/record/53200}, }
