The utilization of ionic liquids (ILs) for future electrochemical applications shows great promise. Recently ILs have been investigated for many electrochemical systems however, further characterization and development of ILs remains as they are utilized in devices such as batteries, capacitors, fuel cells, sensors, and other applications. In this study, we present time resolved (TRS) FTIR spectroscopy data as a means to characterize interfaces between IL-based electrolytes and gold electrodes. These data are important in that dynamic interactions at the electrode/electrolyte interface are crucial to device efficiency, power density, sensitivity, et cetera.
