Stark tuning effect as applied to the Pt-C-0 system. This suggests that the vibrational behavior of adsorbed CO or other IR-active molecules may provide a valuable probe of the electric field at the metal/ electrolyte interface. Future experiments should focus on determining the quantitative accuracy of this approach, by combining the IR measurements with more conventional electrochemical techniques for determining the PZC and the concentration of specifically adsorbed ions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
