Screening Surface Structure-Electrochemical Activity Relationshipsof Copper Electrodes under CO2Electroreduction Conditions

Oluwasegun J. Wahab et al.

Summary: Understanding how crystallographic orientation affects the electrocatalytic performance of metal catalysts is crucial for improving catalyst efficiency. This study combines scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM) with electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) to investigate the correlation between surface crystallographic orientations on polycrystalline copper (Cu) and activity under CO2 electroreduction conditions. The results show that the order of activity is (111) < (100) < (110) among the Cu primary orientations. Furthermore, the study reveals that the ease of electrochemical stripping of the naturally formed passive layer on Cu is grain-dependent, with low-index facets being easier to strip. This research provides a method to rank the most active surfaces for further study.

Heterogeneous electron transfer reorganization energy at the inner Helmholtz plane in a polybromide redox-active ionic liquid

Moonjoo Kim et al.

Summary: The relationship between the structure of the electric double layer (EDL) and its kinetics in ionic liquids (ILs) has been rarely studied, especially for electron transfer (ET) in the inner Helmholtz plane (IHP). In this study, the reorganization energy of Br-2 reduction in a redox-active IL was determined using the Marcus-Hush-Chidsey model. The results showed that the electron-transfer kinetics can influence the electrocatalytic reactions in the IHP of the IL, and the surface charges of the electrodes can switch the major ions at the IHP.

Complex-Solid-Solution Electrocatalyst Discovery by Computational Prediction and High-Throughput Experimentation**

Thomas A. A. Batchelor et al.

Summary: High entropy alloys, composed of five or more principal elements, offer a paradigm shift in electrocatalysis by providing millions of unique active sites with diverse arrangements of multiple elements neighboring a binding site. Utilizing a data-driven discovery cycle helps in mastering the multidimensionality challenge posed by this catalyst class, leading to the development of refined computational models for predicting activity maxima. This method can identify optimal complex-solid-solution materials for electrocatalytic reactions in an unprecedented manner.

Experimental Evidence of Long-Lived Electric Fields of Ionic Liquid Bilayers

Mattia Belotti et al.

Summary: Ionic liquids can form long-lived double layers generating detectable electric fields, with negative voltage pulses leading to stable near-surface dipolar layers. The alignment of individual ion dipoles to external electric field pulses correlates with the resulting open circuit potential, providing insight into interfacial ordering phenomena. A stable overscreened structure is more likely to form if the interface undergoes crowding first, potentially explaining discrepancies in literature data on relaxation kinetics of near-surface structures in ionic liquids.

Cation-Dependent Interfacial Structures and Kinetics for Outer-Sphere Electron-Transfer Reactions

Botao Huang et al.

Summary: This study shows that the identity of spectator cation species can influence the solvation properties and ET kinetics of the redox species, with a trend of increasing solvent reorganization energy as cationic radius decreases. The presence of less charge density cations such as Cs+ can promote weaker hydrogen bonds and lower the effective interfacial static dielectric constant in the redox solvation shell, impacting reaction thermodynamics and rates in electrochemical processes.

Enhancing oxygen reduction electrocatalysis by tuning interfacial hydrogen bonds

Tao Wang et al.

Summary: The proton activity at the electrified interface plays a crucial role in the kinetics of proton-coupled electron transfer reactions. By using a library of protic ionic liquids on platinum and gold interfaces, researchers have successfully enhanced the oxygen reduction reaction activity by up to fivefold, showing a volcano-shaped dependence on the pK(a) of the ionic liquid. This enhancement is attributed to strengthened hydrogen bonds between ORR products and ionic liquids with similar pK(a)s, leading to favorable PCET kinetics.

Cation- and pH-Dependent Hydrogen Evolution and Oxidation Reaction Kinetics

Botao Huang et al.

Summary: This study investigated the role of structure-making/breaking cations in the electrolyte as spectator cations in hydrogen evolution and oxidation reactions. It was found that the kinetics of these reactions can be significantly altered by these cations, highlighting the potential to control reaction rates by tuning interfacial structures of cation and solvents.
