✦ Synopsis
The transfer of matter and charge across interfaces between two solids is generally related to processes of defect relaxation in the regions near the interface. A transfer rate which exceeds the rate of defect relaxation may lead to degradation of the interface, causing a feedback effect for the transfer itself. As a consequence, non-linear phenomena (dissipative structures) like periodic oscillations of the interfacial properties can occur under conditions far from equilibrium. Experimental examples are discussed.

The effect of coumarin on the "deposition potential" of a number of metals at solid metal surfaces has been compared with that at a dropping mercury electrode. These results have been used to interpret the adsorption of coumarin on different metal surfaces and to suggest that Tl+ and Pb\*+ ions are
