The photoelectrochemical processes at CdS single crystal electrodes was studied, focusing mainly on the suppression of CdS dissolution by adding a variety of reducing agents differing widely in their redox potentials. The rotating ring-disk electrode technique served as a useful tool for the in situ determination of the dissolution rate of the electrode surface. Procedure and results are discussed. (WHK)
