摘要
催化氧还原反应的电催化剂是燃料电池的一个重要组成部分.从分子尺度研究催化氧还原反应中所涉及的表界面反应机理,不仅有利于深入理解催化机理,更有利于指导人们合理地设计新型的电催化剂.本文结合近年来国内外的研究工作,概述了通过扫描隧道显微镜研究燃料电池内部催化氧还原反应过程中所涉及的表面形貌变化、单分子结构变化、中间体的观测以及反应产物调控等方面最新进展,并展望了该研究领域的发展趋势.
An electrocatalyst for oxygen reduction reaction(ORR) is an important component for fuel cells. An investigation at interfacial electrochemical reactions toward ORR at a molecular scale benefits mechanistic understanding as well as rational design of catalysts. Scanning tunneling microscopy(STM) has been proven to be a powerful tool to monitor chemical reactions and to provide in-situ information about the interfacial electrochemical reactions at a molecular level. This review summarizes the recent STM studies in monitoring the interface processes such as morphological changes, molecular changes, reaction intermediates, and oxidation products. The prospects of future development in this field are outlined.
