Journal ArticleDOI
Formate, an active intermediate for direct oxidation of methanol on pt electrode.
TL;DR: A near proportional relationship between the intensity of the IR band of the formate species and MeOH electro-oxidation current is observed and a new reaction scheme via non-CO pathway with formate as the active intermediate is proposed for the methanol electro-Oxidation process.
Journal ArticleDOI
Electroless deposition of gold thin films on silicon for surface-enhanced infrared spectroelectrochemistry
TL;DR: In this article, surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) effect was used in preparation of Au island film electrodes for in situ infrared spectroscopic studies of the electrochemical interface in attenuated total reflection mode.
Journal ArticleDOI
Surface-enhanced IR absorption on platinum nanoparticles: an application to real-time monitoring of electrocatalytic reactions
TL;DR: Molecules adsorbed on Pt nanoparticles prepared on Si by a chemical deposition technique exhibit extremely strong IR absorption, which enables fast time-resolved IR monitoring of electrocatalytic reactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanistic study of electrocatalytic oxidation of formic acid at platinum in acidic solution by time-resolved surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy.
TL;DR: The complex voltammetric behavior of the electrocatalytic oxidation of formic acid on a polycrystalline Pt surface is comprehensively explained at the molecular scale by taking all these effects into account.
