The term "in situ" in the context of electrochemistry refers to conducting electrochemical experiments under the control of a voltage inside the operational parameters of an electrochemical cell. The double layer structure and the electron transfer processes taking place at that specific potential in the electrode/electrolyte interphasial region are both maintained by potential management of the electrochemical environment, which is crucial for their preservation. By stimulating samples that are directly under the electron microscope, in situ methods allow researchers to engage with the material. As a result, we are able to examine dynamic, evolving systems and use the electron microscope as a real-time nanoscale laboratory to fill in the gaps of dynamic, evolving processes that we are unable to see by any other method.
