Real-time monitoring of electrochemical dynamics by submillisecond time-resolved surface-enhanced infrared attenuated-total-reflection spectroscopy

In situ observation of the initial adsorption process of heptylviologen cation radicals by slab optical waveguide spectroscopy synchronized with electrode potential modulation methods

“…Since the electron transfer reaction is fast, it is effectively diffusion controlled at enough large current densities [37]. Fig.…”

Study of adsorbed water on Pt during methanol oxidation by ATR-SEIRAS (surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy)

“…Details of ATR-SEIRA spectroscopy were described in the literature [10,[15][16][17][18][19][20]. The following procedure was employed to fabricate a thin Pt film on the base plane of a hemicylindrical silicon prism (Nippon Pastec Co., Ltd., radius 12.5 mm, length 25 mm).…”

Surface-Enhanced Infrared Absorption

“…The short acquisition time enables us to accumulate a series of spectra successively under potential-sweep conditions together with electrochemical data. If the reactions to be investigated are reversible or repeatable, they can be monitored with microsecond timeresolution by using a step-scan FT-IR technique [54,56,58]. By applying twodimensional correlation analysis (i.e.…”

“…Surfaces of nonmetallic materials, such as polymers, semiconductors, glass, human skin, and agricultural products, can also be analyzed by this technique [11,52,53]. Among several applications, great success has been achieved in its application to dynamic studies of electrochemical interfaces [8,25,54,55,56,57,58].…”
