Ns. Marinkovic et al., COADSORPTION OF PERCHLORATE AND BISULFATE IONS WITH TL ADATOMS ON PT(111) - A SNIFTERS STUDY, Journal of physical chemistry, 99(49), 1995, pp. 17490-17493
In situ reflection infrared spectroscopy with electrochemical modulati
on has been used to investigate the coadsorption of anions for the sys
tem Tl-ads/Pt(111) in dilute sulfuric and perchloric acids. For the fi
rst time evidence of coadsorption of perchlorate induced by underpoten
tially deposited Tl atoms is reported. The spectroscopic data show tha
t the platinum surface is covered by Tl adatoms and by perchlorate or
bisulfate from E = 0.4 V up to the onset of the Tl stripping peak. The
possible structures of the Tl-ClO4 and Tl-HSO4 adlayers at Pt(111) ar
e discussed.
