Call for Papers: The 66th Special Feature of Electrochemistry

The 66th Special Feature of Electrochemistry
Novel Aspects and Approaches to Experimental Methods for Electrochemistry
Electrochemistry Editorial Board
The Electrochemical Society of Japan
Electrochemical measurements, established with Voltaic/ Galvanic Cell are based on the difference of electrochemical potentials of materials and the the reaction rate of electron transfer. Based on the data obtained from these measurements, numerous principles and techniques have been developed to elucidate the phenomena of electrochemical reactions, to evaluate materials, and to construct new theories. In recent years, electrochemistry has become an indispensable tool for the development of many materials, from batteries and electrolytic reactions to the creation of electronic materials and devices. It has been further developed by many complementary theories and analytical techniques that are positioned to support basic electrochemical measurements such as spectroscopy, structural analysis and simulation, and computational chemistry.
Here, we call for papers that present new ideas and proposals on experimental methods, measurement methods, and techniques in electrochemistry, covering topics ranging from classical electrochemical measurements to innovative measurement methods and their theories, as well as the elucidation of the functions of materials and substances through complex interpretation with other analytical methods.
The 66th special feature is proposed by the Kansai Division of The Electrochemical Society of Japan (ECSJ), and is one of the projects of the 51st Electrochemistry Training Course to be held in the fall of 2022. This special feature will consist of comprehensive papers on the lectures given by the researchers in Kansai Division of The Electrochemistry Society of Japan, and articles, communications, and notes submitted by the researchers inside and outside the society who agree with the purpose of this special issue. Papers are welcome from researchers in any field, regardless of their individual ideas and innovations, such as new ideas and proposals for measurement and analysis methods, innovative electrochemical analysis methods or ideas leading to them, materials development in collaboration with other analysis, analysis, and calculation methods, use of AI and machine learning, and microanalysis. We also welcome any topic related to electrochemical reactions and materials, even if the measurement method is different from electrochemical measurement.
Please take this opportunity to present your research results as an open access paper. The members of the Kansai Division of The Electrochemical Society of Japan will participate in this special feature as guest editors.
Types of Papers
- Article, Communication, Note, and Comprehensive Paper
- Invited Comprehensive Papers are planned by the request of the Editorial Board.
- Review papers must be recommended by the Society or the Society’s Committee.
