## Cross cutting panel tasks

- Cross-cutting science
- Common fundamental challenges
- Common tools

-  ID Out-of-the-box, potentially “disruptive” approaches
- What are the most promising areas to investigate?

-  Couple to other panels, find common ground

*Nanoscience revolution*
*New Materials*
*New Tools*

**Cross Cutting Themes:**
**a)      Charge Transfer at Interfaces**
**b)      New Measurement Tools and **
**	****	****Techniques**
**c)      Spectroscopy and Structure**
**d)      Electrolytes**
**e)      Large Scale Computation**

## Charge Transfer at Interfaces 

**TOPICS: Solvent and Electrolyte structure, redox alignment, nanomaterials**

**Issues:**
**Electron transfer/ion insertion and release to and from solid lattices**
**Electrochemical Double layer **
**To what extent does the charge transfer, or ion intercalation kinetics, vary over this interface?   Such data would be guides for design of kinetically favored interfaces.**

## Spectroscopy and Structure

**TOPICS: Small cluster synthesis, intercalation, cathode materials**

**Issues: particle density, synthesis, electrodepostion, functionality**
**Rational design of charge storage devices and structures with optimized elements (storage, conductivity,..)**
**Mesoporous electrodes with adequate electronic conductivity.****  **

## New Measurement Tools at Interfaces 

**TOPICS: Vibrational Spectroscopy, SECM at small dimensions, X-ray spectroscopy on clusters, NMR, mass spectrometry**

**Goal:  to produce dynamical and structural information at an electrode surface in real time during an electrochemical reaction**

## Electrolytes

**TOPICS: Potential windows, decomposition, interaction with surfaces, conductivity, ionic liquids, designer electrolytes**

**GOAL: combining very stable redox entities with fluid electrolyte structures, and identifying structures that display usable levels of fluidity and ionic conductivity.**

*"coupled" systems*
-  and E derived from a single material

*"uncoupled" systems*
-  and E derived from separate components

## Large Scale Computation

- Topics: Efficient calculation at every length scale, coupled

**Electron transfer/ion insertion and release to and from solid lattices**
