Abstract: Faced with the increasingly severe environmental pollution and energy crisis, the development of efficient and clean energy conversion technology has attracted more attention. Electrochemical energy conversion technology represented by electrocatalysis has developed rapidly in recent years because of its high efficiency and no pollution. However, the electrocatalytic reaction at the solid/liquid interface involves a variety of reaction species, which makes its mechanism research very difficult, and limits the rational design and development of high-efficiency electrocatalysts. Electrochemical in situ enhanced Raman spectroscopy has the advantages of high sensitivity, good selectivity and fingerprint recognition. It can reveal the electrocatalytic reaction process at the molecular and atomic levels. This paper reviews the application of electrochemical in situ enhanced Raman spectroscopy to study some critical electrocatalytic reactions, including oxygen reduction reaction, hydrogen oxidation reaction, oxygen evolution reaction, hydrogen evolution reaction, carbon dioxide reduction reaction, and so on. Finally, some problems faced by in situ enhanced Raman spectroscopy in the study of electrocatalytic reactions are summarized, and its development are briefly prospected.

Key words: in-situ enhanced Raman spectroscopy, electrocatalysis, reaction mechanism, intermediate species
