Kurzfassung englisch:
Two-dimensional materials, such as self-assembled molecular monolayers and covalent networks, are at the limit of achievable thinness and display many exciting properties. The electrochemical double layer at a solid-electrolyte interface is of similar dimensions, and for this reason, electrochemistry at 2D materials is particularly intriguing.
I my talk, I will discuss recent and ongoing examples of my research in this area, including the boron nitride nanomesh as model system for adhesion and static friction and how underpotential deposition can be used to quantify defects in metal-supported 2D solids. In particular, I will show how scanning tunnelling microscopy in a non-electrolyte, because of the high electric field between tip and substrate, can be used to confine electrochemical processes to the level of a single molecule.
