Lecture series on In-Situ and Operando Characterization Routes
State-of-the-Art, Challenges, Examples, Future Prospects
The growing interest in, e.g. new energy conversion and storage systems drives the fast development of new analytical techniques that allow for in-situ and operando characterization of electrochemical interfaces to gain atomic-level understanding of underlying processes in devices including batteries, fuel cells, water electrolyzers, supercapacitors, etc. The lecture series aims at bringing together scientists who are interested in fundamental processes occurring at the interfaces and in the bulk of electrode and electrolyte materials and provides interdisciplinary education to PhD students.
This event takes place in the following cycle:
Each month
