Electrocrystallization: Concepts and Terminology for Theory and Experiments

With the advent of such techniques as Scanning Tunnelling Microscopy and Atomic Force Microscopy, it is now possible to examine at the atomic level processes occurring on or at electrode surfaces. This thus necessitates a re-examination of terminology and concepts relating to the theoretical and experimental description of the processes which are occurring at electrodes as these atomic processes are taken into account. Emphasis will be placed on the development of a common language for describing these processes.
