Faraday Discussion 140 was organised by the 澳门六合彩开奖记录 Faraday Division.
The need to develop cleaner/greener methods of both energy production and chemical synthesis has been driving renewed interest in electrocatalysis. Experimental advances in the application of spectroscopic methods such as IR, INS, NMR, and XAS, and structural probes such as STM, AFM, high resolution TEM, and XRD are providing a wealth of data that enable structure/property relationships in electrocatalysis to be investigated.
Similarly, developments in theoretical methods (MD simulations, DFT calculations, and Monte Carlo simulations combined with ab initiomethodologies) are providing new insights regarding old catalysts and promise to provide direction in the search for new catalysts. The advent of high throughput catalyst preparation methods means that many more electrocatalyst formulations are being screened for an ever-wider variety of reactions. Directing this effort will require the combined efforts of theoretical models and the development of new experimental techniques.
FD140 brought surface scientists and electrochemists together and fostered the development of both in situ spectroscopic methods in electrochemistry and the study of single crystal electrode surfaces.
The meeting was very well attended with 135 delegates from 18 different countries. In total 24 papers were presented over the course of 3 days at the University of Southampton and 47 posters were presented at the lively poster and networking session.
