Abstract
- Strain engineering, as a cutting-edge method for modulating the electronic structure of catalysts, plays a crucial role in regulating the interaction between the catalytic surface and the adsorbed molecules. The electrocatalytic performance is influenced by the electronic structure, which can be achieved by introducing the external forces or stresses to adjust interatomic spacing between surface atoms. The challenges in strain engineering research lie in accurately understanding the mechanical impact of strain on performance. This paper first introduces the basic strategy for generating the strain, summarizes the different strain generation forms and their advantages and disadvantages. The progress in researching the characterization means for the lattice strains and their applications in the field of electrocatalysis is also emphasized. Finally, the challenges of strain engineering are introduced, and an outlook on the future research directions is provided. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
