Gq. Lu et al., In situ FTIR spectroscopic studies of CO adsorption on electrodes of nanometer-thin layer of Pt-Ru and Pt-Pd surface alloys, CHIN SCI B, 44(16), 1999, pp. 1470-1474
CO adsorption on nanometer-thin layer of surface alloys of Pt-Ru and Pt-Pd
prepared by electrochemical codeposition has been studied using in situ FTI
R spectroscopy. Abnormal infrared effects (AIREs) that consist of the enhan
cement of IR absorption by adsorbed CO on different surface sites and the i
nversion of IR band direction have been observed on the thin-layer prepared
. The results also demonstrate the considerable significance of Pt-Ru and P
t-Pd surface alloys in electrocatalysis applications.
