Stepping out of equilibrium: The quest for understanding the role of non-equilibrium (thermo-)dynamics in electronic and electrochemical processes

Abstract

This editorial aims to interest researchers and inspire novel research on the topic of non-equilibrium Thermodynamics and Monte Carlo for Electronic and Electrochemical Processes. We present a brief outline on recent progress and challenges in the study of non-equilibrium dynamics and thermodynamics using numerical Monte Carlo simulations. The aim of this special issue is to collect recent advances and novel techniques of Monte Carlo methods to study non-equilibrium electronic and electrochemical processes at the nanoscale.
