Electrocatalysis

Faraday Discussions No. 140 will bring surface scientists and electrochemists together and foster the development of both in situ spectroscopic methods in electrochemistry and the study of single crystal electrode surfaces. Advances in theoretical methodology: to describe the state of the art and to address what is still missing. Development of spectroscopic techniques: moving from studies of model surfaces to more realistic surfaces and in situ investigations. Electrocatalyst discovery: what can be learned from high throughput screening methods and theoretical calculations? Beyond fuel cells: the future of electrocatalysis. This unique discussion meeting will bring electrochemists, surface scientists and theoreticians together and foster the development of both in situ spectroscopic methods in electrochemistry and theoretical methods which model the electrocatalytic interface.
