AbstractUnderstanding the dynamic process of interfacial charge transfer prior to chemisorption is crucial to the development of electrocatalysis. Recently, interfacial water has been highlighted in transferring protons through the electrode/electrolyte interface; however, the identification of the related structural configurations and their influences on the catalytic mechanism is largely complicated by the amorphous and mutable structure of the electrical double layer (EDL). To this end, sub-nanometric Pt electrocatalysts, potentially offering intriguing activity and featuring fully exposed atoms, are studied to uncover the elusive electrode/electrolyte interface via operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy during the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Our results show that the metallic Pt clusters derived from the reduction of sub-nanometric Pt clusters (SNM-Pt) exhibit excellent HER activity, with an only 18 mV overpotential at 10 mA/cm(2) and one-magnitude-higher mass activity than commercial Pt/C. More importantly, a unique Pt-interfacial water configuration with a Pt (from Pt clusters)-O (from water) radial distance of approximately 2.5 angstrom is experimentally identified as the structural foundation for the interfacial proton transfer. Toward high overpotentials, the interfacial water that structurally evolves from "O-close" to "O-far" accelerates the proton transfer and is responsible for the improved reaction rate by increasing the hydrogen coverage.
