Electrochemical Surface-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopic Studies On Nickel Ultramicroelectrode, Li-Wen Wu, Wei Wang, Yi-Fan Huang

Journal of Electrochemistry

Nickel (Ni) electrodes are widely used in electrochemical researches. Understanding electrochemical processes on Ni electrodes through in-situ characterization of adsorbed species on their surfaces is helpful for rational optimization and application of Ni electrochemistry. Microelectrochemical surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (μEC-SERS) combines the mass transfer feature of ultramicroelectrode with high-sensitivity characterizations of molecular structures, which is a powerful method for studying Ni electrochemistry on polarization and non-equilibrium conditions. The key point of performing μEC-SERS is to make a SERS-active Ni ultramicroelectrode.
Here, we demonstrate a method of preparing a SERS-active Ni ultramicroelectrode through electrochemical deposition of several atomic layers of …


Study Of Electrochemical Properties Of Ni(Oh)_2 /Niooh With Spectroscopic Ellipsometry, Shengtao Zhang, Zongqing Huang Feb 1995

Study Of Electrochemical Properties Of Ni(Oh)_2 /Niooh With Spectroscopic Ellipsometry, Shengtao Zhang, Zongqing Huang

Journal of Electrochemistry

Electrochemical reactions of Ni(OH)_2 /NiOOH system were studied by using in-situ spectroscopic ellipsometry and the conventional electrochemical metheds.By fitting data fromellipsometric measurements,a transformation medel of the surface film was obtained for cathedic andanodic processes. The results indicated that the transformation medel after cobalt implantation almostremained the same as that before cobalt implantation,but the electrochemical properties wereaffectedobviously by implantation of cobalt.
