Aim: Elucidation, understanding and control of electrochemical bubble formation in nanostructured electrodes
Objectives
- Detailed insight and “design rules” in the nanoscale chemical and physical parameters that control bubble formation, bubble coalescence, and bubble release for a variety of relevant reactions.
- Development of protocols to minimize the deleterious effects of bubble evolution.
Hypothesis
Tuning of electrode nanostructure in combination with electrolyte properties can optimize the current density of gas forming electrodes beyond purely catalytic activity.
