The applied potential dependent rate of atomic step motion of the Ag(001) surface in weak NaF electrolyte has been measured using a new extension of the technique of X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy (XPCS). For applied potentials between hydrogen evolution and oxidation, the surface configuration completely changes on timescales of 10(2)-10(4) seconds depending upon the applied potential. These dynamics, directly measured over large areas of the sample surface simultaneously, are related to the surface energy relative to over or under potential. Concurrent specular X-ray scattering measurements reveal how the ordering of the water layers at the interface correlates with the dynamics.
