Welcome to the Redox Shields 2024 Workshop!

Spatiotemporal Complexity in Electrochemistry: From Experiments to Models

This workshop investigates the intricate relationship between mass and charge transport and their influence on (electro)chemical reactivity. The coupling between interfacial electrochemistry, homogeneous chemical reactions, and mass and charge transport within a system plays a pivotal role in shaping the underlying chemical processes, ultimately impacting the kinetics and thermodynamics of reactions. Particular focus is placed on systems where concentrations vary from their bulk value and change rapidly over a short distance, creating distinct layers. How do spatiotemporal variations in concentration impact applications in energy conversion and storage? What are the implications for electrocatalysis? By exploring this connection, a nuanced understanding of the fundamental factors governing chemical reactivity coupled to transport phenomena is sought, providing insights into potential applications in various electrochemical systems.
