Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance Study On The Promoted Electron Transfer Process At Gold Electrode, Xia-Qin Wu, Zhe-Su Wang, Xiao-Yun Meng, Zong-Rang Zhang

Journal of Electrochemistry

The adsorption behavior of amino acids, such as L-cysteine, histidine and arginine at gold-quartz crystal microbalance (Au-QCM) was investigated. The adsorption quantity of cysteine is more appreciable than others because of the stronger interaction between its thiol group and the gold electrode surface. The electron-transfer process of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in presence of cysteine at Au-QCM has also been studied using the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) technique which reveals clearly the quasi-reversible electron-transfer process accompanied by the frequency shift cycle. The reversible adsorption and disorption processes are discussed.

The Influence Of Surface Diffusion Of Adsorbed Intermediate On Hydrogen Evolution Reaction At Pt/Nafion Composite Electrodes, Wei-Yi Tu, Lei Su, Wen-Jun Liu, Bing-Liang Wu

Journal of Electrochemistry

The decrease of over-potential of hydrogen evolution reaction at Pt black powder/Nafion microelectrode, comparing that of the Pt microdisk/Nafion electrode, was evident from the polarization curves of the Pt microdisk/Nafion electrode, platinized Pt micrdisk/Nafion electrode and Pt black powder/Nafion microelectrode. It is also evidenced by a plane Pt electrode with an additional free Pt surface. The surface diffusion and the surface recombination reaction of the adsorbed intermediate at the free surface of the Pt particles were supposed. It is an additional reaction path that induced the decrease of the concentration of the adsorbed intermediate. Thereby, the over-potential decreased.

Environmental Studies Faculty Publications

Second-order [O(k2), k = ω/c] nondipole effects in soft-x-ray photoemission are demonstrated via an experimental and a theoretical study of angular distributions of neon valence photoelectrons in the 100–1200 eV photon-energy range. A newly derived theoretical expression for nondipolar angular distributions characterizes the second-order effects using four new parameters with primary contributions from pure-quadrupole and octupole-dipole interference terms. Independent-particle calculations of these parameters account for a significant portion of the existing discrepancy between experiment and theory for Ne 2p first-order nondipole parameters.
