Dear Colleagues,
This week I would like to draw your attention to four Editors’ Choice papers: (1) a perspective article offering an outlook on the operando XAS and XPS; (2) a review comparing low- and high-temperature electrochemical reduction technologies; (3) a research paper examining the performance of a short stack for the co-electrolysis of CO2 and H2O at elevated pressures, and (4) a research paper benchmarking OER in alkaline electrolytes.
All of them are open access papers. A special thank you to those who have reviewed manuscripts for the Journal of The Electrochemical Society. We also thank the authors who consider publishing their best work in the Journal.
With ECS's recent publishing partnership transition to IOP Publishing, some authors may have questions with the new journal manuscript submission, peer review, and production processes. Fret no more! We're here to help.
When in doubt, ECS staff is here to assist you through the process. Connect with them at publications@electrochem.org.
