Electrodeposition of platinum on nanometer-sized carbon electrodes

Article Abstract:

The results on the electrodepositions of Pt on nanometer-sized carbon microelectrodes are presented. The results showed that the single nucleation and growth processes could also occur at relatively large electrodes (~100nm in size) when a high overpotential is applied so that a diffusion-controlled deposition process is established.

Potential modulated infrared reflectance spectroscopy of Pt-diisocyanide nanostructured electrodes

Article Abstract:

Importance of IR reflectance spectroscopy and its preparation and properties of platinum nanoparticle films attached to an Au substrate by means of diisocyanide tethers are investigated. The bipolar bands observed indicate a potential dependent vibration, which is similar to that observed for adsorbed CO.

Kinetics of electron transfer at Pt nanostructured film electrodes

Article Abstract:

The kinetics of electron transfer to nanoparticulate platinum/octyldiisocyanide films is investigated. The films are grown by attachment of 1,8-diisocyanooctane onto gold, and Pt layers are constructed by contacting this film with a toluene solution of Pt nanoparticles.
