Add domain electrochemistry #428

This PR adds information on the domain electrochemistry, illustrating the current situation in FAIR approaches in this research area.

Parts of the text were inferred from the physical chemistry domain and adapted accordingly.


<ElnFinder subDisc="Physical chemistry" />

For specific domains, such as "electrosynthesis" the Chemotion ELN might be an appropriate choice.

Chemotion ELN should be a link.
Not sure if you want to link to the Chemotion ELN homepage or on a subpage in the knowledge base


Common challenges in electrochemistry and FAIR data often go hand-in-hand with the large variety of sub-disciplines, methodology, and thus diverse data types,
for which no standards exist to date.
A few groups working in electrochemistry labs have established their own personal workflows.

We could add references here to research articles. The choice would, however, be biased. One can find them simply using a scholarly search.

To establish a FAIR reporting culture, large community projects such as [Battery2030+](https://battery2030.eu/),
are required and must be established for different domains.

The echemdb community could be mentioned, but possibly as such, it is still too small. I leave that decision to you.

Conceptually, the main data type in electrochemistry consists of time series data containing fundamental electrical parameters such as voltage (potential)
and current (current density), including the measurement time.
For AC methods also the frequency, the impedance and the phase angle are relevant.
These data are most simply stored as CSV, but are often only available in non-standard file formats.

One could mention that a file standard for electrochemical data does not exist. Maybe some domains do have that, such as in electrosynthesis maybe JCAMP-DX?

@linuxrider you might as well have a look at this.

Is there already a logo for electrochemistry?


## Introduction

Electrochemistry plays a significant role in very different research areas, such as organic chemistry, analytical chemistry, life sciences, engineering and material science.

These data are most simply stored as plain DSV (delimiter-separated values, e.g. CSV), but are often only available in non-standard file formats and mixed with metadata.

For AC methods also the frequency, the impedance and the phase angle are relevant.

Often additional techniques are employed *operando* to gain more detailed insights into the origin of the measured charge transfer
processes and other non-measurable (chemical) processes occurring concomitantly at the electrodes, in the electrolyte, or the interfaces,

Gives the impression all data is in the same file.

This is indeed sometimes the case. I specify that both options are possible.

Additionally, imaging data can be obtained from purely electrochemical techniques such as scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) or indirectly,
when combined with other methods such as *in situ* electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy (*in situ* STM).
Further data evaluation can yield any kind of time series data or imaging data.
