Abstract
Surface-enhanced spectroscopy techniques are the method-of-choice to characterize adsorbed intermediates occurring during electrochemical reactions, which are crucial in realizing a green and sustainable future. Characterizing species with low coverage or short lifetimes has so far been limited by low signal enhancement. Recently, single-band metasurface-driven surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy (SEIRAS) has been pioneered as a promising technology to monitor a single vibrational mode during electrochemical CO oxidation. However, electrochemical reactions are complex, and their understanding requires the simultaneous monitoring of multiple adsorbed species in situ, hampering the adoption of nanostructured electrodes in spectro-electrochemistry. Here, we develop a multi-band nanophotonic-electrochemical platform that simultaneously monitors in situ multiple adsorbed species emerging during cyclic voltammetry scans by leveraging the high resolution offered by the reproducible nanostructuring of the working electrode. Specifically, we studied the electrochemical reduction of CO2 on a Pt surface and used two separately tuned metasurface arrays to monitor two adsorption configurations of CO with vibrational bands at ∼2030 and ∼1840 cm-1. Our platform provides a ∼40-fold enhancement in the detection of characteristic absorption signals compared to conventional broadband electrochemically roughened platinum films. A straightforward methodology is outlined starting with baselining our system in a CO-saturated environment and clearly detecting both configurations of adsorption. In contrast, during the electrochemical reduction of CO2 on platinum in K2CO3, CO adsorbed in a bridged configuration could not be detected. We anticipate that our technology will guide researchers in developing similar sensing platforms to simultaneously detect multiple challenging intermediates, with low surface coverage or short lifetimes.

Abstract
In a network of coupled oscillators, a symmetry-broken dynamical state characterized by the coexistence of coherent and incoherent parts can spontaneously form. It is known as a chimera state. We study chimera states in a network consisting of six populations of identical Kuramoto-Sakaguchi phase oscillators. The populations are arranged in a ring, and oscillators belonging to one population are uniformly coupled to all oscillators within the same population and to those in the two neighboring populations. This topology supports the existence of different configurations of coherent and incoherent populations along the ring, but all of them are linearly unstable in most of the parameter space. Yet, chimera dynamics is observed from random initial conditions in a wide parameter range, characterized by one incoherent and five synchronized populations. These observable states are connected to the formation of a heteroclinic cycle between symmetric variants of saddle chimeras, which gives rise to a switching dynamics. We analyze the dynamical and spectral properties of the chimeras in the thermodynamic limit using the Ott-Antonsen ansatz and in finite-sized systems employing Watanabe-Strogatz reduction. For a heterogeneous frequency distribution, a small heterogeneity renders a heteroclinic switching dynamics asymptotically attracting. However, for a large heterogeneity, the heteroclinic orbit does not survive; instead, it is replaced by a variety of attracting chimera states.

Abstract
A prominent type of collective dynamics in networks of coupled oscillators is the coexistence of coherently and incoherently oscillating domains known as chimera states. Chimera states exhibit various macroscopic dynamics with different motions of the Kuramoto order parameter. Stationary, periodic and quasiperiodic chimeras are known to occur in two-population networks of identical phase oscillators. In a three-population network of identical Kuramoto-Sakaguchi phase oscillators, stationary and periodic symmetric chimeras were previously studied on a reduced manifold in which two populations behaved identically [Phys. Rev. E 82, 016216 (2010)1539-375510.1103/PhysRevE.82.016216]. In this paper, we study the full phase space dynamics of such three-population networks. We demonstrate the existence of macroscopic chaotic chimera attractors that exhibit aperiodic antiphase dynamics of the order parameters. We observe these chaotic chimera states in both finite-sized systems and the thermodynamic limit outside the Ott-Antonsen manifold. The chaotic chimera states coexist with a stable chimera solution on the Ott-Antonsen manifold that displays periodic antiphase oscillation of the two incoherent populations and with a symmetric stationary chimera solution, resulting in tristability of chimera states. Of these three coexisting chimera states, only the symmetric stationary chimera solution exists in the symmetry-reduced manifold.

Abstract
A twisted state is an important yet simple form of collective dynamics in an oscillatory medium. Here we describe a nontrivial type of twisted state in a system of nonlocally coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators. The nontrivial twisted state (NTS) is a coherent traveling wave characterized by inhomogeneous profiles of amplitudes and phase gradients, which can be assigned a winding number. To further investigate its properties, several methods are employed. We perform a linear stability analysis in the continuum limit and compare the results with Lyapunov exponents obtained in a finite-size system. The determination of covariant Lyapunov vectors allows us to identify collective modes. Furthermore, we show that the NTS is robust to small heterogeneities in the natural frequencies and present a bifurcation analysis revealing that NTSs are born or annihilated in a saddle-node bifurcation and change their stability in Hopf bifurcations. We observe stable NTSs with winding number 1 and 2. The latter can lose stability in a supercritical Hopf bifurcation, leading to a modulated 2-NTS.

Abstract
We investigate dynamics and bifurcations in a mathematical model that captures electrochemical experiments on arrays of microelectrodes. In isolation, each individual microelectrode is described by a one-dimensional unit with a bistable current-potential response. When an array of such electrodes is coupled by controlling the total electric current, the common electric potential of all electrodes oscillates in some interval of the current. These coupling-induced collective oscillations of bistable one-dimensional units are captured by the model. Moreover, any equilibrium is contained in a cluster subspace, where the electrodes take at most three distinct states. We systematically analyze the dynamics and bifurcations of the model equations: We consider the dynamics on cluster subspaces of successively increasing dimension and analyze the bifurcations occurring therein. Most importantly, the system exhibits an equivariant transcritical bifurcation of limit cycles. From this bifurcation, several limit cycles branch, one of which is stable for arbitrarily many bistable units.

Abstract
Chimera states, i.e., dynamical states composed of coexisting synchronous and asynchronous oscillations, have been reported to exist in diverse topologies of oscillators in simulations and experiments. Two-population networks with distinct intra- and inter-population coupling have served as simple model systems for chimera states since they possess an invariant synchronized manifold in contrast to networks on a spatial structure. Here, we study dynamical and spectral properties of finite-sized chimeras on two-population networks. First, we elucidate how the Kuramoto order parameter of the finite-sized globally coupled two-population network of phase oscillators is connected to that of the continuum limit. These findings suggest that it is suitable to classify the chimera states according to their order parameter dynamics, and therefore, we define Poisson and non-Poisson chimera states. We then perform a Lyapunov analysis of these two types of chimera states, which yields insight into the full stability properties of the chimera trajectories as well as of collective modes. In particular, our analysis also confirms that Poisson chimeras are neutrally stable. We then introduce two types of "perturbation" that act as small heterogeneities and render Poisson chimeras attracting: A topological variation via the simplest nonlocal intra-population coupling that keeps the network symmetries and the allowance of amplitude variations in the globally coupled two-population network; i.e., we replace the phase oscillators by Stuart-Landau oscillators. The Lyapunov spectral properties of chimera states in the two modified networks are investigated, exploiting an approach based on network symmetry-induced cluster pattern dynamics of the finite-size network.

Abstract
Coupled oscillators, even identical ones, display a wide range of behaviours, among them synchrony and incoherence. The 2002 discovery of so-called chimera states, states of coexisting synchronized and unsynchronized oscillators, provided a possible link between the two and definitely showed that different parts of the same ensemble can sustain qualitatively different forms of motion. Here, we demonstrate that globally coupled identical oscillators can express a range of coexistence patterns more comprehensive than chimeras. A hierarchy of such states evolves from the fully synchronized solution in a series of cluster-splittings. At the far end of this hierarchy, the states further collide with their own mirror-images in phase space - rendering the motion chaotic, destroying some of the clusters and thereby producing even more intricate coexistence patterns. A sequence of such attractor collisions can ultimately lead to full incoherence of only single asynchronous oscillators. Chimera states, with one large synchronized cluster and else only single oscillators, are found to be just one step in this transition from low- to high-dimensional dynamics.

Abstract
The coexistence of limit cycles in a phase space, so called birhythmicity, is a phenomenon known to exist in many systems in various disciplines. Yet, detailed experimental investigations are rare, as are studies on the interaction between birhythmic components. In this article, we present experimental evidence for the existence of birhythmicity during the anodic electrodissolution of Si in a fluoride-containing electrolyte using weakly illuminated n-type Si electrodes. Moreover, we demonstrate several types of interaction between the coexisting limit cycles, in part resulting in peculiar dynamics. The two limit cycles exhibit vastly different sensitivities with respect to a small perturbation of the electrode potential, rendering the coupling essentially unidirectional. A manifestation of this is an asymmetric 1:2 intrinsic entrainment of the coexisting limit cycles on an individual uniformly oscillating electrode. In this state, the phase-space structure mediates the locking of one of the oscillators to the other one across the separatrix. Furthermore, the transition scenarios from one limit cycle to the other one at the borders of the birhythmicity go along with different types of spatial symmetry breaking. Finally, the master-slave type coupling promotes two (within the experimental limits) identical electrodes initialized on the different limit cycles to adopt states of different complexity: one of the electrodes exhibits irregular, most likely chaotic, motion, while the other one exhibits period-1 oscillations. The coexistence of coherence and incoherence is the characteristic property of a chimera state, the two coupled electrodes constituting an experimental example of a smallest chimera state in a minimal network configuration.

Abstract
Highly symmetric networks can exhibit partly symmetry-broken states, including clusters and chimera states, i.e., states of coexisting synchronized and unsynchronized elements. We address the S_{4} permutation symmetry of four globally coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators and uncover an interconnected web of solutions with different symmetries. Among these are chaotic 2-1-1 minimal chimeras that arise from 2-1-1 periodic solutions in a period-doubling cascade, as well as fully asymmetric chaotic states arising similarly from periodic 1-1-1-1 solutions. A backbone of equivariant pitchfork bifurcations mediate between the two cascades, culminating in equivariant pitchforks of chaotic attractors.

Abstract
We study the spatiotemporal dynamics of the oscillatory photoelectrodissolution of n-type Si in a fluoride-containing electrolyte under anodic potentials using in situ ellipsometric imaging. When lowering the illumination intensity stepwise, we successively observe uniform oscillations, modulated amplitude clusters, and the coexistence of multifrequency clusters, i.e., regions with different frequencies, with a stationary domain. We argue that the multifrequency clusters emerge due to an adaptive, nonlinear, and nonlocal coupling, similar to those found in the context of neural dynamics.

Abstract
The production of solar hydrogen with a silicon based water splitting device is a promising future technology, and silicon-based metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) electrodes have been proposed as suitable architectures for efficient photocathodes based on the electronic properties of the MIS structures and the catalytic properties of the metals. In this paper, we demonstrate that the interfaces between the metal and oxide of laterally patterned MIS electrodes may strongly enhance the catalytic activity of the electrode compared to bulk metal surfaces. The employed electrodes consist of well-defined, large-area arrays of gold structures of various mesoscopic sizes embedded in a silicon oxide support on silicon. We demonstrate that the activity of these electrodes for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) increases with an increase in gold/silicon oxide boundary length in both acidic and alkaline media, although the enhancement of the HER rate in alkaline electrolytes is considerably larger than in acidic electrolytes. Electrodes with the largest interfacial length of gold/silicon oxide exhibited a 10-times larger HER rate in alkaline electrolytes than those with the smallest interfacial length. The data suggest that at the metal/silicon oxide boundaries, alkaline HER is enhanced through a bifunctional mechanism, which we tentatively relate to the laterally structured electrode geometry and to positive charges present in silicon oxide: Both properties change locally the interfacial electric field at the gold/silicon oxide boundary, which, in turn, facilitates a faster transport of hydroxide ions away from the electrode/electrolyte interface in alkaline solution. This mechanism boosts the alkaline HER activity of p-type silicon based photoelectrodes close to their HER activity in acidic electrolytes.

Abstract
Oscillatory systems with long-range or global coupling offer promising insight into the interplay between high-dimensional (or microscopic) chaotic motion and collective interaction patterns. Within this paper, we use Lyapunov analysis to investigate whether chimera states in globally coupled Stuart-Landau (SL) oscillators exhibit collective degrees of freedom. We compare two types of chimera states, which emerge in SL ensembles with linear and nonlinear global coupling, respectively, the latter introducing a constraint that conserves the oscillation of the mean. Lyapunov spectra reveal that for both chimera states the Lyapunov exponents split into several groups with different convergence properties in the limit of large system size. Furthermore, in both cases the Lyapunov dimension is found to scale extensively and the localization properties of covariant Lypunov vectors manifest the presence of collective Lyapunov modes. Here, however, we find qualitative differences between the two types of chimera states: Whereas the ones in the system under nonlinear global coupling exhibit only slow collective modes corresponding to Lyapunov exponents equal or close to zero, those which experience the linear mean-field coupling exhibit also faster collective modes associated with Lyapunov exponents with large positive or negative values. Furthermore, for the fastest collective mode we showed that it spreads across both synchonous and incoherent oscillators.

Abstract
The electrodissolution of p-type silicon in a fluoride-containing electrolyte is a prominent electrochemical oscillator with a still unknown oscillation mechanism. In this article, we present a study of its dynamical states occurring in a wide range of the applied voltage-external resistance parameter plane. We provide evidence that the system possesses inherent birhythmicity, and thus at least two distinct feedback loops promoting oscillatory behavior. The two parameter regions in which the different limit cycles exist are separated by a band in which the dynamics exhibit bistability between two branches with different multimode oscillations. Following the states along one path through this bistable region, one observes that each branch undergoes a different transition to chaos, namely, a period doubling cascade and a quasiperiodic route with a torus-breakdown, respectively, making Si electrodissolution one of the few experimental systems exhibiting bichaoticity.

Abstract
The ubiquitous occurrence of cluster patterns in nature still lacks a comprehensive understanding. It is known that the dynamics of many such natural systems is captured by ensembles of Stuart-Landau oscillators. Here, we investigate clustering dynamics in a mean-coupled ensemble of such limit-cycle oscillators. In particular, we show how clustering occurs in minimal networks and elaborate how the observed 2-cluster states crowd when increasing the number of oscillators. Using persistence, we discuss how this crowding leads to a continuous transition from balanced cluster states to synchronized solutions via the intermediate unbalanced 2-cluster states. These cascade-like transitions emerge from what we call a cluster singularity. At this codimension-2 point, the bifurcations of all 2-cluster states collapse and the stable balanced cluster state bifurcates into the synchronized solution supercritically. We confirm our results using numerical simulations and discuss how our conclusions apply to spatially extended systems.

Abstract
Manifold-learning techniques are routinely used in mining complex spatiotemporal data to extract useful, parsimonious data representations/parametrizations; these are, in turn, useful in nonlinear model identification tasks. We focus here on the case of time series data that can ultimately be modelled as a spatially distributed system (e.g. a partial differential equation, PDE), but where we do not know the space in which this PDE should be formulated. Hence, even the spatial coordinates for the distributed system themselves need to be identified - to "emerge from"-the data mining process. We will first validate this "emergent space" reconstruction for time series sampled without space labels in known PDEs; this brings up the issue of observability of physical space from temporal observation data, and the transition from spatially resolved to lumped (order-parameter-based) representations by tuning the scale of the data mining kernels. We will then present actual emergent space "discovery" illustrations. Our illustrative examples include chimera states (states of coexisting coherent and incoherent dynamics), and chaotic as well as quasiperiodic spatiotemporal dynamics, arising in partial differential equations and/or in heterogeneous networks. We also discuss how data-driven "spatial" coordinates can be extracted in ways invariant to the nature of the measuring instrument. Such gauge-invariant data mining can go beyond the fusion of heterogeneous observations of the same system, to the possible matching of apparently different systems. For an older version of this article, including other examples, see https://arxiv.org/abs/1708.05406.

Abstract
Protonated pyridine (PyH+ ) has been reported to act as a peculiar and promising catalyst for the direct electroreduction of CO2 to methanol and/or formate. Because of recent strong incentives to turn CO2 into valuable products, this claim triggered great interest, prompting many experiments and DFT simulations. However, when performing the electrolysis in near-neutral pH electrolyte, the local pH around the platinum electrode can easily increase, leading to Py and HCO3 - being the predominant species next to the Pt electrode instead of PyH+ and CO2 . Using a carefully designed electrolysis setup which overcomes the local pH shift issue, we demonstrate that protonated pyridine undergoes a complete hydrogenation into piperidine upon mild reductive conditions (near 0 V vs. RHE). The reduction of the PyH+ ring occurs with and without the presence of CO2 in the electrolyte, and no sign of CO2 electroreduction products was observed, strongly questioning that PyH+ acts as a catalyst for CO2 electroreduction.

Abstract
Symmetry broken states arise naturally in oscillatory networks. In this Letter, we investigate chaotic attractors in an ensemble of four mean-coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators with two oscillators being synchronized. We report that these states with partially broken symmetry, so-called chimera states, have different setwise symmetries in the incoherent oscillators, and in particular, some are and some are not invariant under a permutation symmetry on average. This allows for a classification of different chimera states in small networks. We conclude our report with a discussion of related states in spatially extended systems, which seem to inherit the symmetry properties of their counterparts in small networks.

Abstract
The dynamical behavior of an array of microelectrodes is investigated under controlled current conditions during CO electrooxidation, a bistable electrochemical reaction with an S-shaped negative differential resistance (S-NDR) current-potential curve. Under these conditions, the total current constitutes a globally conserved quantity, thus coupling all microelectrodes globally. Upon increasing the total current, the microelectrodes activate one by one, with a single microelectrode being on its intermediate S-NDR current branch and the other ones being either on their passive or their active branches. When a few coupled microelectrodes are activated, the electrochemical system exhibits spontaneous potential oscillations. Mathematical analysis shows that oscillations arise already in a two group approximation of the dynamics, the two groups consisting of 1 electrode and n - 1 electrodes with n ≥ 3, respectively, with each group being described by a single evolution equation. In this minimal representation, oscillations occur when the single electrode is on the intermediate branch and the larger group is on the active branch.

Abstract
The formation of a self-organized spatial domain during current-controlled CO oxidation, a kinetically bistable reaction, is investigated experimentally and by deterministic simulations as a function of the electrode size and of the supporting electrolyte concentration. Decreasing the microelectrode size leads to the suppression of the spatial instability at the electrode and thus stabilizes the S-NDR branch of the reaction. The critical microelectrode size capable of supporting sustained domain formation is shown to be strongly affected by the sulfuric acid concentration, the characteristic time of the positive feedback loop increasing with the sulfate concentration. Furthermore, we demonstrate that for microelectrode diameters close to the instability threshold, small amplitude electrochemical potential fluctuations appear in the system. These potential fluctuations cannot be captured by deterministic mathematical models and are attributed to a strong enhancement of molecular fluctuations or intrinsic noise in the vicinity of the spatial instability. Analysis of the electrochemical noise revealed a 1/f 2 frequency dependence and several common features with neuronal shot noise.

Abstract
We present a universal characterization scheme for chimera states applicable to both numerical and experimental data sets. The scheme is based on two correlation measures that enable a meaningful definition of chimera states as well as their classification into three categories: stationary, turbulent, and breathing. In addition, these categories can be further subdivided according to the time-stationarity of these two measures. We demonstrate that this approach is both consistent with previously recognized chimera states and enables us to classify states as chimeras which have not been categorized as such before. Furthermore, the scheme allows for a qualitative and quantitative comparison of experimental chimeras with chimeras obtained through numerical simulations.

Abstract
Uncertain recognition success, unfavorable scaling of connection complexity, or dependence on complex external input impair the usefulness of current oscillatory neural networks for pattern recognition or restrict technical realizations to small networks. We propose a network architecture of coupled oscillators for pattern recognition which shows none of the mentioned flaws. Furthermore we illustrate the recognition process with simulation results and analyze the dynamics analytically: Possible output patterns are isolated attractors of the system. Additionally, simple criteria for recognition success are derived from a lower bound on the basins of attraction.

Abstract
We study an oscillatory medium with a nonlinear global coupling that gives rise to a harmonic mean-field oscillation with constant amplitude and frequency. Two types of cluster states are found, each undergoing a symmetry-breaking transition towards a related chimera state. We demonstrate that the diffusional coupling is non-essential for these complex dynamics. Furthermore, we investigate localized turbulence and discuss whether it can be categorized as a chimera state.

Abstract
The coexistence of coherently and incoherently oscillating parts in a system of identical oscillators with symmetrical coupling, i.e., a chimera state, is even observable with uniform global coupling. We address the question of the prerequisites for these states to occur in globally coupled systems. By analyzing two different types of chimera states found for nonlinear global coupling, we show that a clustering mechanism to split the ensemble into two groups is needed as a first step. In fact, the chimera states inherit properties from the cluster states in which they originate. Remarkably, they can exist in parameter space between cluster and chaotic states, as well as between cluster and synchronized states.

Abstract
We study two-cluster solutions of an ensemble of generic limit-cycle oscillators in the vicinity of a Hopf bifurcation, i.e., Stuart-Landau oscillators, with a nonlinear global coupling. This coupling leads to conserved mean-field oscillations acting back on the individual oscillators as a forcing. A reduction to two effective equations makes a linear stability analysis of the cluster solutions possible. These equations exhibit a π-rotational symmetry, leading to a complex bifurcation structure and a wide variety of solutions. In fact, the principal bifurcation structure resembles that of a 2:1 resonance tongue, while inside the tongue we observe an 1:1 entrainment.

Abstract
Abstract
We examined the spatio-temporal behavior of an electrochemical system in the bistable regime, in which the system might take on either a high current density state (active) or a low current density state (passive) at one value of the externally applied voltage. The transition from the passive to the active state is accompanied by accelerating fronts with sharp interfaces, whereas the reverse transition from the active to the passive state exhibits much smoother spatial variations. Also the evolution of the total current density displays qualitative differences in the two cases. Both, the differences of the spatial patterns as well as those of the total current densities are reproduced with a mathematical model, which also reveals the origin of the asymmetry of the transitions: a global coupling, intrinsic in all electrochemical systems, in combination with the specific dependence of the reaction current on the electrode potential.

Abstract
We report a novel mechanism for the formation of chimera states, a peculiar spatiotemporal pattern with coexisting synchronized and incoherent domains found in ensembles of identical oscillators. Considering Stuart-Landau oscillators, we demonstrate that a nonlinear global coupling can induce this symmetry breaking. We find chimera states also in a spatially extended system, a modified complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. This theoretical prediction is validated with an oscillatory electrochemical system, the electro-oxidation of silicon, where the spontaneous formation of chimeras is observed without any external feedback control.

Abstract
A wide variety of subharmonic n -phase cluster patterns was observed in experiments with spatially extended chemical and electrochemical oscillators. These patterns cannot be captured with a phase model. We demonstrate that the introduction of a nonlinear global coupling (NGC) in the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation has subharmonic cluster pattern solutions in wide parameter ranges. The NGC introduces a conservation law for the oscillatory state of the homogeneous mode, which describes the strong oscillations of the mean field in the experiments. We show that the NGC causes a pronounced 2:1 self-resonance on any spatial inhomogeneity, leading to two-phase subharmonic clustering, as well as additional higher resonances. Nonequilibrium Ising-Bloch transitions occur as the coupling strength is varied.

Abstract
We investigate the dynamics of a population of globally coupled FitzHugh-Nagumo oscillators with a time-periodic coupling strength. While for synchronizing global coupling, the in-phase state is always stable, the oscillators split into several cluster states for desynchronizing global coupling, most commonly in two, irrespective of the coupling strength. This confines the ability of the system to form n:m locked states considerably. The prevalence of two and four cluster states leads to large 2:1 and 4:1 subharmonic resonance regions, while at low coupling strength for a harmonic 1:1 or a superharmonic 1:m time-periodic coupling coefficient, any resonances are absent and the system exhibits nonresonant phase drifting cluster states. Furthermore, in the unforced, globally coupled system the frequency of the oscillators in a cluster state is in general lower than that of the uncoupled oscillator and strongly depends on the coupling strength. Periodic variation of the coupling strength at twice the natural frequency causes each oscillator to keep oscillating with its autonomous oscillation period.

Abstract
The effect of boundaries on pattern formation was studied for the catalytic oxidation of carbon monoxide on platinum surfaces. Photolithography was used to create microscopic reacting domains on polycrystalline foils and single-crystal platinum (110) surfaces with inert titanium overlayers. Certain domain geometries give rise to patterns that have not been observed on the untreated catalyst and bring to light surface mechanisms that have no analog in homogeneous reaction-diffusion systems.

Abstract
The electrodissolution of metal electrodes exhibits often sustained oscillations of the current density. We study the spatio-temporal dynamics of a metal disk electrode embedded in an insulator in a cylindrical electrochemical cell with a ring-shaped CE in the oscillatory region. The chosen cell geometry introduces a strong radial parameter dependence into the system. For low conductivity the dynamics is spatio-temporally chaotic. A small aspect ratio of the cell supports 2-dimensional space-time chaos on the entire disk electrode. For larger aspect ratios and thus larger parameter gradients, however, we observe a ‘self-confinement’ of the turbulent dynamics to the central part of the disk electrode, the outer ring of the electrode exhibiting angularly uniform oscillations. It can be expected that the state of confined chaos is not restricted to electrochemical systems but can be established also in other dynamical systems by introducing an appropriate parameter gradient.
