Chemical and physical processes occurring at surfaces and interfaces, including gas-liquid, solid-liquid, and gas-solid interface are important in many applications and do represent grand scientific and engineering challenges. This Focus Topic aims to provide a platform for the latest developments of emerging techniques and scientific understanding using in situ/ex situ/non situ/operando imaging, spectroscopy, and microscopy to investigate challenging surfaces and interfaces. The contributions cover applications in biology, catalysis, energy conversion and storage, environment, and material science.
