Book description
Catalysis in Electrochemistry: From Fundamental Aspects to Strategies
for Fuel Cell Development
is a modern, comprehensive reference work on catalysis in
electrochemistry, including principles, methods, strategies, and
applications. It points out differences between catalysis at
gas/surfaces and electrochemical interfaces, along with the future
possibilities and impact of electrochemical science on energy problems.
This book contributes both to fundamental science; experience in the
design, preparation, and characterization of electrocatalytic materials;
and the industrial application of electrocatalytic materials for
electrochemical reactions. This is an essential resource for scientists
globally in academia, industry, and government institutions.
Elizabeth Santos received her PhD in physical chemistry from the
University of Córdoba, Argentina. Her research interests in
electrocatalysis include interfacial electrochemistry, single crystal
surfaces, second harmonic generation, and electron transfer reactions.
Wolfgang Schmickler received his PhD in natural sciences from the
Department of Physical Chemistry, University of Bonn, and has been a
Professor in the Department of Theoretical Chemistry at the University
of Ulm since 1992. Dr. Schmickler's research interests include the
theory of catalysis, quantum statistics, Monte Carlo and molecular
dynamics simulations, and the theory of electrochemical interfaces.
