Ethylene Hydrogenation on Pt(111) Monitored in Situ at High Pressures Using Sum Frequency Generation

TL;DR: In this article, the infrared−visible sum frequency generation (SFG) has been used to monitor the surface vibrational spectrum in situ during ethylene hydrogenation on Pt(111), where measurements were made near 1 atm of total pressure of ethylene and hydrogen and at 295 K.

Low energy electron diffraction studies of high index crystal surfaces of platinum

TL;DR: The presence of ordered atomic steps may be considered as a general structural property of high index surfaces regardless of the chemical bonding in the crystal as mentioned in this paper, and a nomenclature is suggested to identify the surface structures of stepped surfaces.

Low energy electron diffraction studies of gas adsorption on the platinum (100) single crystal surface

TL;DR: In this paper, the chemisorption of various gases on the Pt(100) single crystal surface has been studied, using low energy electron diffraction (LEED), mass spectrometry, flash desorption and work function measurements, at gas pressures usually ⩽ 1 × 10−7 Torr and at temperatures between 25°C-1400°C.
