We discuss how electronic-structure calculations can be used to identify the dominant point defects that control the growth and dissolution of the oxide barrier layer formed if a metal comes into contact with a corrosive environment. Using the example of the Zn/ZnO/H(2)O interface we develop and apply a theoretical ap…
