In-situ observations of adsorption and film formation on metal electrodes by synchrotron far infrared reflectance spectroscopy.

Adsorption and film formation are key processes associated with the passivation and inhibition of metallic corrosion. New experimental approaches are needed to advance our knowledge in these areas. We have developed the technique of Synchrotron Far Infrared Reflectance Spectroscopy (SFIRS) for in situ investigations of the structure and composition of surface films and adsorbed layers on metals. We demonstrate its application to the determination of the nature of surface films on copper in aque… more

``In-situ`` infrared spectroscopy of electrode surfaces with a synchrotron source

The objective of this study was to develop and use far infrared spectroscopy with a synchrotron source for the elucidation of structures and interactions at electrode surfaces and interfaces. The authors investigated anodically formed surface films on copper in aqueous solutions and water adsorption on gold and platinum. This document contains graphs of infrared spectra and cyclic voltammograms of the films on copper.
