Abstract
We present a mini-perspective on the development of first principles modeling of electrochemical interfaces. We show that none of the existing methods deal with all the thermodynamic constraints that the electrochemical environment imposes on the structure of the interface. We present two directions forward to make the description more realistic and correct. © 2014 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
