M. Tadjeddine et al., VIBRATIONAL PROPERTIES OF CN- ADSORBED ON PLATINUM AND SILVER - AB-INITIO MCSCF CALCULATIONS COMPARED WITH SFG EXPERIMENTS, Journal of electroanalytical chemistry [1992], 408(1-2), 1996, pp. 237-242
The electronic and vibrational properties of CN- adsorbed on Ag electr
odes have been studied through ab initio multiconfigurational self-con
sistent field (MCSCF) calculations of the molecular ions AgCN- and AgN
C- and compared with PtCN- and PtNC-. Results of calculations are cons
istent with the experimental data obtained by in situ visible infrared
sum frequency generation (SFG) spectroscopy of CN- adsorbed on polycr
ystalline Ag and Pt electrodes.
