Closely related to the inorganic constellation, is the constellation focussing on electrochemistry, where a strong reputation is being built. This electrochemical research spans different areas such as fundamental theoretical studies of ion-ion interaction, surface charging of nanoparticles, reaction mechanisms for electrocatalysis and electron transfer of transition metal complexes.
Theoretical studies are strongly coupled to experimental activities such as oxygen reduction, epoxidation of alkenes, electrochemical properties of surface bound transition metal complexes, electrochemical induced deposition of oxides and hydroxides, surface complexation and solid state conduction.
