Welcome

 The DIPC School on PhotoElectroCatalysis at the Atomic Scale (PECAS), organized by the Donostia International Physics Center (DIPC), will take place in Donostia-San Sebastián, Basque Country (Spain) from June 27th to 30th, 2017.

 The DIPC School PECAS is aimed at promoting interdisciplinary discussion of scientists in the material science and photoelectrochemistry fields in addition to presentation of new results, ideas and methods to understand the catalyst-electrolyte interface at an atomic level. 

 The school will be taught at the postgraduate level in the fields of surface science and electrochemistry, but introductory seminars will be specially addressed to introduce master and graduate students from Chemistry and/or Physics in each topic covered in the school.

Topics: (For further details, please check the Program)

• In situ and in operando electrochemistry-surface science techniques and methods
• Energy conversion from photon and chemical energy to electrical energy
• Electrocatalysts for water splitting and CO₂ reduction
• Local active sites on solid surfaces: reactivity of defects
• Chemical engineering and synthesis of photoelectrochemical systems
• Novel materials for electrochemical energy storage
• Electrochemical biosensors
• Theoretical modeling of electrochemical interfaces
