Investigation of electrocatalytic reactions and processes at molecule level is of essential
importance in the successful development of electrocatalyst. It is critical to understand the …

Benefiting from a principally contaminant-free and well-defined surface, single-crystal
electrodes offer new insights into interfacial processes and are important in electrochemistry …

The oxidation of adsorbed CO is a key reaction in electrocatalysis. It has been studied
extensively on both extended model surfaces and on nanoparticles; however, correlation …

The knowledge about how CO occupies and detaches from specific surface sites on well-
structured Pt surfaces provides outstanding information on both dynamics/mobility of COads …

The site geometry preference of CO binding on stepped Pt single crystals in alkaline solution
was investigated by in situ FTIR spectroscopy. The surfaces of the Pt single crystals …

The active spin state of a single Fe catalytic center in acidic oxygen reduction reaction
(ORR) remains uncertain, posing a significant challenge for the precise design of Fe-based …

Tetrahexahedral nanocrystals (THH NCs) of fcc metals such as Pt, Pd, Rh possess a high
catalytic activity due to their open surface structure and high surface energy. 1 It has been …

In situ FTIR reflection spectroscopy (in situ FTIRS) can probe both surface and solution
species involved in electrochemical reactions, and is powerful in characterization of …
