Direct proof for electrochemical substitution of surface hydrogen of boron-doped diamond electrode by TOF-ESD method
The substitution of surface hydrogen on boron (B)-doped diamond electrodes during electrochemical hydrogen evolution was confirmed using TOF-ESD method. The results show that surface-H(D) was substituted by D(H) as a result of the reduction of D+(H+) in solution during the electrochemical hydrogen evolution at the B-doped diamond.
