Modeling the Electrode / Electrolyte Interface in UHV at Cryogenic Temperatures

The electrochemical “double layer” is one of the fundamental concepts in
electrochemistry. This layer forms at electrode /
liquid interfaces in solution and affects
processes like electron transfer, corrosion, and
electrocatalysis. Understanding the structure of
this interface is critical to improving
electrochemical technologies. Previous studies
from this group have involved characterization
of the molecular structure of the electrode/
electrolyte interface in aqueous and nonaqueous
environments using both in-situ and ex-situ
(emersed from solution) strategies.
