Frontiers in Electrochemistry

The objective of this book is to provide a state-of-the-art description of the structure of electrified interfaces with particular emphasis on the structure of the metal-solution interface. During the past decade, a molecular picture of the interface has emerged, superseding the notions of metal and solution as electronic and dielectric continua respectively. This book discusses the newest developments, including the progress in surface science, where the structure of the metal surface at the metal-gas interface has become resolved down to the picometer scale.
