Abstract

Determining how electrode structure governs the performance of an electrocatalyst requires techniques capable of probing structure at the atomic scale, often in situ and operando. In recent years, there have been numerous advances in the main experimental techniques for determining the structure of the electrochemical interface. In situ/operando synchrotron surface x-ray diffraction measurements are key to investigate the atomic structure of the electrode surfaces as well as understand the structure-reactivity relations in electrocatalysis. Here we discuss some recent improvements that have taken place in surface x-ray diffraction and how we expect them to lead to an enhanced understanding of electrocatalysis.
