I have been analyzing some High-Resolution Transmission Electron Microscopy (HR-TEM) images of metallic nanoparticles recently, and one of the most useful properties to obtain is the d-spacing values from the crystalline structure of individual nanoparticles (or for the whole sample). As you may know, Gatan’s Digital Micrograph is the most Read more…
Last weeks I have been trying to learn how to use first-principles calculations to study electrochemical reactions. I am specifically using software for Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations with the goal to apply it to interesting electrocatalytic reactions such as the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER) or Read more…
Electrochemistry is a quite old science since its birthday is considered to be in the 18th century but I think that, scientifically-speaking, it is in the best moment of its life. As an electrochemistry I always have on my mind the social relevance of my beloved scientific field but I Read more…
Hello world! I am a blog fan. Twitter threads are nice to follow current events, spreading information immediately but they also get lost in a deep sea very quickly. Blogs stay forever and the information can be easily accessed by a simple search in your favorite engine. I have previously Read more…
