237th ECS Meeting
May 10-14, 2020 l MONTRÉAL, CANADA surface have been established. Likewise, the impact of adsorbed anions, cations, upd metal species, and/or molecules on the production of metal and semiconductor films and particles has been widely reported. Taking advantage of this diverse background we will explore several questions of common interest such as: (1) What is the nature of the relationship between adsorbate structure and the evolution of particle shape or facet geometry during deposition and dissolution? (2) What is the extent of rate differentiation accessible by using different surfactants? (3) How much anisotropy can be induced in electrocrystallization reactions by using different adsorbates? (4) How do changes in potential and related perturbations affect adsorbate structure and thereby film and particle growth dynamics? (5) How is particle growth influenced by the choice of reducing agent and surfactant(s), and how does this compare to electrolytic growth at comparable potentials? (6) How does the rate of deposition and stripping affect the morphology of thin films (7) How is roughness evolution influenced by surfactants? (8) How effectively do surfactants remain segregated at growing interfaces? (9) Why do some surfactants or additives lead to the breakdown of epitaxial growth and how are they incorporated in the growing solid? (10) How do surfactants influence the deposition of alloys and compounds? (11) How can surfactants be used to influence the growth of deposits with graded multiscale porosity? (12) Can dendritic growth be tamed by additives? New approaches for measurements and modeling related to the study of surfactant and additive effects are also of interest. No issue of ECS Transactions is planned for this symposium. All authors are encouraged to submit a full text preprint, slides, or other presentation-related materials to the new preprint server, ECSarXiv (http://www.electrochem.org/ecsarxiv/). Abstracts should be submitted electronically to ECS headquarters, and questions and inquiries should be sent to the symposium organizers: Thomas Moffat, NIST, email: thomas.moffat@nist.gov; Peter Broekmann, University of Berne, email: peter.broekmann@dcb.unibe. ch; Rohan N.

Nucleation and Growth Processes Enabling Energy Conversion and Storage Electrodeposition Division, Battery Division
Many energy storage and conversion devices rely on nanoparticulate metal or alloy coatings or ultra thin-films for which the properties are determined by the nucleation and growth process. In this symposium the fundamentals of nucleation and growth phenomena are linked to the properties of the deposit towards energy storage or conversion. No issue of ECS Transactions is planned for this symposium. All authors are encouraged to submit a full text preprint, slides, or other presentation-related materials to the new preprint server, ECSarXiv (http://www.electrochem.org/ecsarxiv/). Abstracts should be submitted electronically to ECS headquarters, and questions and inquiries should be sent to the symposium organizers: Yasuhiro Fukunaka, Waseda University, email: hirofukunaka@ gmail.com; Thomas Polk Moffat, National Institute of Standards and Technology, email: thomas.moffat@nist.gov; Jon Ustarroz, Vrije Universiteit Brussel, email: Jon.Ustarroz@vub.be; Huang, Qiang, University of Alabama, email: qhuang@eng.ua.edu; Shirley Meng, University of California at San Diego, email: shirleymeng@ucsd.edu.
E03
Electrodeposition of Alloys, Intermetallic Compounds, and Eutectics Electrodeposition Division
This symposium will focus on various aspects of electrochemical deposition of alloys, intermetallic compounds and eutectic mixtures. Oral and poster contributions focusing on fundamental and practical aspects of alloy electrodeposition and their applications, post-electrodeposition processing phenomena, and description of new measurement techniques are solicited. We will explore, but not limit ourselves to, diverse topics such as: (1) Phenomena during the early stages of alloy deposition. (2) The influence of system parameters (electrolyte composition, deposition parameters, etc) on alloy composition and its physical and chemical characteristics. (3) Variations in alloy composition, within a given electrodeposited structure or a substrate, as a function of its characteristic dimensions and system parameters. (4) Correlations between the physical-chemical properties of the electrodeposited films and post-electrodeposition processing phenomena. (5) Intermetallic compound (IMC) formation between electrodeposited alloys/elemental layers. (6) New approaches to electrochemical deposition of alloys and related physical-chemical characterization techniques are also of interest. No issue of ECS Transactions is planned for this symposium. All authors are encouraged to submit a full text preprint, slides, or other presentation-related materials to the new preprint server, ECSarXiv (http://www.electrochem.org/ecsarxiv/). Abstracts should be submitted electronically to ECS headquarters, and questions and inquiries should be sent to the symposium organizers: Alex Radisic, imec, email: Alex.Radisic@imec.be; Timothy Hall, Faraday Technology, email: timhall@faradaytechnology.com; Despina Davis, Raytheon Company, email: Despina.Davis@raytheon.com.

F01
Advances in Industrial Electrochemistry and Electrochemical Engineering Industrial Electrochemistry and Electrochemical Engineering Division
Papers are solicited in areas of industrial electrochemistry and electrochemical engineering that are not covered by other symposia at this meeting. Of particular interest are papers concerning: design, operation, testing, and/or modeling of industrial electrochemical systems; electrochemical waste treatment technologies; methods for electrosynthesis; electrolytic recovery of process materials; new electrode materials; new electrochemical cell designs; and electrocatalysis. Presentations on industrially significant areas, such as chlor-alkali and fluorine production; manufacture of aluminum and other metals; the use of electrochemical methods in pulp and paper bleaching; and generation of environmentally-friendly bleaching chemicals and other active oxidants are also encouraged. Papers may contain both theoretical and experimental work, and papers dealing with either area will be considered. This session will also include invited and IE&EE division award presentations. No issue of ECS Transactions is planned for this symposium. All authors are encouraged to submit a full text preprint, slides, or other presentation-related materials to the new preprint server, ECSarXiv (http://www.electrochem.org/ecsarxiv/).
