Query: Nanoscale heterogeneity at the aqueous electrolyte-electrode interface   Using molecular dynamics simulations, we reveal emergent properties of
hydrated electrode interfaces that while molecular in origin are integral to
the behavior of the system across long times scales and large length scales.
Specifically, we describe the impact of a disordered and slowly evolving
adsorbed layer of water on the molecular structure and dynamics of the
electrolyte solution adjacent to it. Generically, we find that densities and
mobilities of both water and dissolved ions are spatially heterogeneous in the
plane parallel to the electrode over nanosecond timescales. These and other
recent results are analyzed in the context of available experimental literature
from surface science and electrochemistry. We speculate on the implications of
this emerging microscopic picture on the catalytic proficiency of hydrated
electrodes, offering an new direction for study in heterogeneous catalysis at
the nanoscale.
