Abstract
En 中文
Electrocatalysis has traditionally relied on static reaction conditions; in which catalyst performance is determined by equilibrium surface states. However; many catalytic processes in Nature are inherently dynamic. Pulse-driven electrocatalysis (PE) offers temporal control over electrode potential; allowing real-time adjustments to adsorbate energetics; charge distribution; and selectivity. This perspective shows how voltage pulses can reprogram catalytic interfaces; alter mechanistic pathways; favor transient intermediate states; reorganize the electric double layer (EDL); and steer reaction networks beyond steady-state limits. It covers the physical chemistry principles behind PE processes using pivotal multistep electrocatalytic reactions. Finally; future directions involving artificial intelligence to develop efficient self-optimizing electrocatalytic systems are elegantly discussed.
