Abstract

Summary The understanding of fundamental relationships between the structure of an electrode and its activity for a given reaction is crucial for catalyst development in electrocatalysis. The hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) on Au single crystal electrodes belongs to the class of structure-sensitive processes. HER can be used to study dynamic processes of the electrode surface. It is shown that kinetics of surface reconstruction is significantly dependent on the electrode potential. The role of Au in binary electrocatalysts for HER is discussed.
