We report here the in situ electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy(ECSTM)study of cobalt phthalocyanine(CoPc)-catalyzed O2 evolution reaction(OER)and the dynamics of CoPc-O2 dissociation.The self-assembled CoPc monolayer is fabricated on Au(111)substrate and resolved by ECSTM in 0.1 M KOH electrolyte.The OH-adsorption on CoPc prior to OER is observed in ECSTM images.During OER,the generated O2 adsorbed on CoPc is observed in the CoPc monolayer.Potential step experiment is employed to monitor the desorption of OER-generated O2 from CoPc,which results in the decreasing surface cov-erage of CoPc-O2 with time.The rate constant of O2 desorption is evaluated through data fitting.The insights into the dynamics of Co-O2 dissociation at the molecular level via in situ imaging help under-stand the role of Co-O2 in oxygen reduction reaction(ORR)and OER.
