Co-adsorption of CO onto a Ag-modified Pt(111) — Restructuring of a Ag UPD layer monitored by EC-STM
Literature Information
Katrin F. Domke, Xiao-Yin Xiao, Helmut Baltruschat
The effect of co-adsorption of CO on an underpotentially deposited (UPD) silver monolayer on a Pt(111) single crystal electrode in 0.05 M sulfuric acid is investigated for the first time by means of electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy (EC-STM). Pure electrochemical experiments suggest that the co-adsorption of CO onto Pt single crystal electrodes previously modified by a monolayer of Ag, forces Ag atoms of the first UPD monolayer into a second adlayer. The present EC-STM studies reveal the formation of a large-area Ag network after the co-adsorption of CO. The resulting Ag nanostructures formed on wide Pt(111) terraces are approximately 0.5 nm high and 10 nm wide. The desorption of the newly formed second Ag adlayer, the oxidation of CO and the desorption of Ag atoms from the first adlayer are monitored by EC-STM and simultaneously detected in the corresponding CVs in three different oxidation peaks. EC-STM images recorded afterwards show the unchanged Pt surface. The presence of Ag on the surface leads to a downward shift of the onset of oxygen adsorption on the Pt(111) surface.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
