This presentation will first give a brief introduction to the single-molecule fluorescence approaches to image catalytic reactions on single nanoparticles at single-turnover and super-optical resolution. It will present applications of such approaches in gaining insights into the spatiotemporal reactivity patterns on single catalyst particle in (photo)(electro)catalysis. It will also describe the recent development of new approaches for super-resolution imaging of nonfluorescent processes on surfaces, including molecular adsorption and the formation of metal-hydrogen intermediates in (photo)electrocatalysis.

Electrostatic potential fluctuations in liquid water control the thermodynamics and kinetics, such the solvation free energies, the capacitance of electrified interfaces, and the decoherence of molecular qubits in aqueous environments. Most simulation work has focused on mean fields. Only recently has it become clear that the fluctuations themselves carry physics that is missed by the average. [mehr]
