Searching for Order in Complex Electrochemical Systems: From Epitaxial Semiconductor-Electrolyte Interfaces to Liquid-Metal Electrodes

Electrochemical interfaces of semiconductors are often poorly understood on an atomistic level as their (electronic) structure can vary significantly within the accessible electrochemical parameter space. Initial corrosion of single-crystalline systems typically introduces amorphous interfaces and -phases, creating significant challenges for the correlation between experiment and electronic structure modelling based on small supercells.
