Catalytic rate enhancement occurs primarily through catalyst design to tune the binding characteristics of surface species and transition states for maximum catalytic turnover frequency . In the past two decades, advances in nanostructured materials led to detailed synthesis of atomic-scale active sites that precisely balance the surface substrate binding energies . The limit of this approach is characterized by the Sabatier principle, which states that the binding of substrates must be neither too strong nor too weak . Quantitative description of the Sabatier principle was captured in Balandin-Sabatier volcano-shaped curves ("volcano curves" for the remainder of the manuscript), which depicted a metric of catalyst activity relative to a descriptor of substrate binding . Balandin depicted volcano-shaped curves in 1960 and 1964 for the dehydration and dehydrogenation of alcohols, with the catalytic Abstract. Acceleration of catalytic transformation of molecules via heterogeneous materials occurs through design of active binding sites to optimally balance the requirements of all steps in a catalytic cycle. In accordance with the Sabatier principle, the characteristics of a single binding site are balanced between at least two transient phenomena, leading to maximum possible catalytic activity at a single, static condition (i.e., a 'volcano curve' peak). In this work, a dynamic heterogeneous catalyst oscillating between two electronic states was evaluated to demonstrate catalytic activity as much as three-to-four orders of magnitude (1,000-10,000x) above the Sabatier maximum. Surface substrate binding energies were varied by a given amplitude (0.1 < ΔU < 3.0 eV) over a broad range of frequencies < f < 10 11 s -1 ) in square, sinusoidal, sawtooth, and triangular waveforms to characterize the impact of surface dynamics on average catalytic turnover frequency. Catalytic systems were shown to exhibit order-ofmagnitude dynamic rate enhancement at 'surface resonance' defined as the band of frequencies (e.g., 10 3 -10 7 s -1 ) where the applied surface waveform kinetics were comparable to kinetics of individual microkinetic chemical reaction steps. Key dynamic performance parameters are discussed regarding industrial catalytic chemistries and implementation in physical dynamic systems operating above kilohertz frequencies. activity dependent on the bond energies between the alcohol oxygen and the metal oxide catalysts . Since that time, volcano curves have been generated for numerous catalytic chemistries including NO x decomposition , propylene oxidation , hydrodesulfurization , ammonia synthesis , CO oxidation , and oxygenate decomposition , among many other reactions .
