Scheme 1. Schematic of pseudo-single-crystal measurement of HER activity on polycrystalline Ag. This approach is based on the colocalization of SECCM (left) and EBSD measurements (right).
Fig. 1. (a) Typical local SECCM voltammograms at three different grains on a polycrystalline Ag. These locations are labeled in (c). Solution: 10 mmol/L HClO4. Scan rate: 0.5 V/s. (b) Colocalized SEM image showing the scanned area. White spots indicate the SECCM droplet footprint after the SECCM scan. Local current density map for HER at ?0.75 V (c) and ?0.95 V (d) vs. RHE. (e) Colocalized map of grained-averaged crystal orientation obtained from EBSD. The black lines indicate the high-angle grain boundaries, and the yellow lines indicate the twin boundaries. The averaged crystal orientation of each grain is shown on the standard stereographic triangle, i.e., inverse pole figure. (IPF).
Fig. 2. (a) Example Tafel plots of HER at three different grains. The exact locations are labeled by white square boxes. (b) Map of local Tafel slope (η). The red dash lines represent the grain boundaries. (c) Map of local exchanged current density (j0). (d) Colocalized SEM image showing the footprints of the scanned locations. (e) Colocalized map of grained-averaged crystal orientation obtained from EBSD. The averaged crystal orientation of each grain is shown on the IPF.
Fig. 4. (a) Grain-averaged exchange current density at ?0.75 V (vs. RHE) as a function of crystal orientation. (b) Grain-averaged Tafel slope as a function of crystal orientation. The positions of the dots on the IPF represents the crystal orientation, while the colors represent current density in (a) and Tafel slope in (b).
Fig. 5. (a) Tafel slope vs step density. r = ?0.47. (b) Log exchange current density (j0) vs. step density. r = 0.13. The calculation of step density is shown in SI section 9.
