Abstract

In this Project, surface stressing electrochemical processes are going to be applied and investigated for plasmonic electrode materials, resulting in their nanostructuration. Besides, these electrodes are going to be applied for electrochemical double layer structuration investigations, as well as electrochemical activity in the dark and under illumination.
