Abstract

Abstract

Many advanced catalysts have considered the positive effect of surface mechanics during their design and preparation, in which the high active atoms on the surface are under different strain states. Strain can directly change the bandgap of a metal, which has a significant impact on the electrochemical reaction that occurred at the electrocatalyst surface. It is a new idea and effective strategy to improve the electrocatalytic activity of materials. Traditional strain engineering based on material strategies is difficult to accurately quantify the strain value of an active layer, which results in the unclear recognition of the relation between strain and electrocatalytic activity. The strain induced by the alternating load has the advantages of tunable amplitude and frequency as well as continuous modulation. From the classical thermodynamic of solid-liquid interface, this review briefly introduces the electro-chemo-mechanical coupling in electrocatalytic systems, and summarizes the experimental methods and the analysis methods in use for studying the effect of strain on electrocatalytic reactivity. It is also discussed in detail on the mechanism of strain on the electrocatalytic reaction at the metal surface under alternating load. Finally, the development and application of surface mechanics in electrochemical systems are prospected from the perspective of mechanics.
