Simulations of surface capacitance effects on potentiostat response following disruption of passivity

Description: Following depassivation of potentiostatically controlled metals, complex current transients arise because of the current distribution and the capacitance of the surrounding passive metal/solution interface. A computer simulation of the cross-section has been developed. Examples following an instantaneous scratch are given for changes in the placement of the reference electrode and changes in the area of the passive surface.

XANES and XPS studies of the reduction of ammonium paramolybdate

Description: in situ glancing-angle x-ray reflectivity experiments were performed on electrochemical reduction products formed in a dilute paramolybdate solution on a platinum electrode. These data were compared with x-ray photoelectron spectra which showed formation of simple molybdate, pentavalent and tetravalent species at increasingly negative potentials. X-ray absorption data demonstrated changes in edge position, pre-edge structure and edge height corresponding to reduction and subsequent growth of th… more
