Abstract

Hetero-coordinated bond formation changes the local bond strength and charge distribution. Polarization dominance reduces the CL and makes the alloy a donor-like catalyst with weakened interface mechanical strength; entrapment dominance does it contrastingly. The ZPS offers such a unique yet straightforward means that diagnosis the interface bonding and electronic dynamics in alloys, compounds, impurities, and interfaces for devising functional substance.
