Themed collection Single Entity Electrochemistry

We are delighted to share with you a selection of the papers which will be presented at our Faraday Discussion on Single Entity Electrochemistry taking place in York, UK in August 2016. More information about the event may be found here: http://rsc.li/electrochemistry-fd2016. Additional articles will be added to the collection as they are published. The final versions of all the articles presented and record of the live discussions will be published after the event.

Electrochemistry is central to several energy technologies (batteries, fuel cells, solar cells) in addition to playing a key role in sensing and diagnostic platforms. These areas of electrochemistry are greatly impacted by nanoscale systems. Single entity electrochemistry studies provide a new way of viewing and understanding electrochemical processes at the nanoscale. The papers and discussion presented here outline key challenges in the design, execution, analysis, theory and interpretation of such experiments, and assess the implications of these measurements for electrochemistry and broader interfacial science.
