In the present study, we have investigated structures of a CO adlayer on a well-defined Pt(100) electrode surface in 0.1 M HClO4 aqueous solutions saturated with N2, 1% CO/He and 100% CO by using in situ STM. The in situ STM images with molecular resolution demonstrated that highly ordered structures of the CO adlayer, denoted (2 × n) – 2(n − 1)CO with CO coverages of (n − 1)/n, dynamically varied with the electrode potential and the CO partial pressure in solution. As the CO partial pressure increased, more compressed structures of the CO adlayer formed on the electrode surface. In each solution, a phase transition of the CO adlayer on the terrace site was observed to be triggered by increasing the electrode potential, accompanied by a partial desorption of surface CO without charge transfer. A series of in situ STM images revealed transient local structures during the phase transition of the CO adlayer. Specifically, unique structures were found to appear in the vicinity of monoatomic steps in N2- and 1% CO/He-saturated solution, but not in 100% CO-saturated solution.

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.
