Faraday Discussion 140: Electrocatalysis: Theory and Experiment at the Interface (FD140)
Venue: University of Southampton
Location: Southampton, United Kingdom
Event Date/Time: Feb 13, 2008 |
Description
Topics that will be discussed during the meeting:
• 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
Invited speakers include Marc Koper (Leiden, The Netherlands), David Schriffrin (Liverpool), Matthew Neurock (Virginia, USA) and Ib Chorkendorff (Denmark).
