70 years of defect physical chemistry
Literature Information
Alan B. Lidiard
As an introduction to this conference this article gives a brief review of the development of the role of defects in solid state physical chemistry over the past 70 years, with the principal emphasis on the fundamental theoretical ideas. The considerations are divided into (i) structure and states, (ii) atomic and ionic mobilities and (iii) transport processes and chemical reactions. The usefulness of the fundamental theory of defects in crystalline solids to the understanding of chemical reactions in the solid state was already apparent in the 1930's, although some scepticism remained until the 1950's. Subsequent decades have witnessed an increased sophistication of the theory, an increased precision and range of the experimental studies and an increased confidence in the application of the understanding to materials of practical interest.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
