TL;DR: In this article, the electrochemical behavior of CO plays a key role in the understanding of the reaction mechanism of many electrocatalytic oxidations of small organic molecules, and the adsorption of CO on noble metal electrodes, eventually modified by foreign metal adatoms, is reviewed, taking into account both experimental (electrochemical and spectroscopic techniques) and theoretical (Extended Huckel Model) approaches.

TL;DR: Theoretical potentiodynamic current/potential curves for a film formation process under an ohmic resistance control are given in this article, which is compared with experimental data involving the formation of insoluble parathiocyanogen on platinum and the precipitation of a solid CuCl layer during copper dissolution in aqueous HCl solution.

TL;DR: In this article, in-situ Fourier transform IR reflectance spectroscopy has been used to study the electroadsorption and oxidation of ethanol at polycrystalline Ir and Rh electrodes in HClO 4 solutions.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the electroadsorption of sulphide species on gold and the growth of sulphur multilayers using optical and electrochemical techniques in sodium tetraborate buffer as the supporting electrolyte (pH 7.0 and 9.2).

TL;DR: In this article, the electroreflectance spectra of Au (100), (110) and (111) surfaces are interpreted with success in terms of optical transitions involving surface states, and it is revealed that there are subtle differences in structure between the metal surface in contact with an aqueous solution and the same surface in vacuum.
