The Influence Of Cation Size Upon The Infrared Spectrum Of Carbon Monoxide Adsorbed On Platinum Electrodes, Mark Anderson, Jimin Huang Nov 1991

The Influence Of Cation Size Upon The Infrared Spectrum Of Carbon Monoxide Adsorbed On Platinum Electrodes, Mark Anderson, Jimin Huang

Mark R. Anderson

The infrared spectrum of carbon monoxide adsorbed on polycrystalline platinum electrodes in the presence of acetonitrile solutions is examined. Acetonitrile solutions provide a wide double layer region (approximately 4 V) in which to investigate the observed potential dependence of the infrared peak position. The wider window allows for better comparisons of experimental data with theoretical predictions than those which are available from measurements conducted in aqueous solutions. It is found that (i) near-monolayer surface coverage can be obtained from solutions saturated with CO, (ii) the coverage stays constant over roughly the entire double layer region, (iii) the CO adsorbs to …

A Collaborative Summer Research Program For Community College Students, Chris Craney, Franklin Dehaan Oct 1991

A Collaborative Summer Research Program For Community College Students, Chris Craney, Franklin Dehaan

Chris L. Craney

While the benefits of undergraduate research are well established, little attention has been paid toward involving community college students in such research. This paper describes a five-year-experience with a summer research program that includes Los Angeles area community college students working side-by-side with Occidental College students and faculty.

Determination Of The Vertical Ionization Potentials Of Small Sodium Clusters Using Path Integral Monte Carlo Calculations, Sean E. Hays, Randall W. Hall Sep 1991

Determination Of The Vertical Ionization Potentials Of Small Sodium Clusters Using Path Integral Monte Carlo Calculations, Sean E. Hays, Randall W. Hall

Randall W. Hall

Feynman's path integral formulation of quantum mechanics, supplemented by an approximate pseudopotential to account for exchange, is used to determine the vertical ionization potentials of Na1-Na4. Results are in good agreement with both the trends and the quantitative results of earlier work, We observe that the amount of discretion necessary to obtain converged energies is greater than that needed to obtain qualitatively correct information regarding the nature of the correlated wave function.

Sniftirs Study Of The Behavior Of The Spectrum Of Carbon Monoxide Adsorbed On A Platinum Electrode In Alcoholic Solvents, Andrea Russell, Daniel Blackwood, Mark Anderson, Stanley Pons Apr 1991

Sniftirs Study Of The Behavior Of The Spectrum Of Carbon Monoxide Adsorbed On A Platinum Electrode In Alcoholic Solvents, Andrea Russell, Daniel Blackwood, Mark Anderson, Stanley Pons

Mark R. Anderson

The vibrational spectrum of carbon monoxide as a function of coverage in various alcoholic solvents was investigated using the SNIFTIRS technique. At low coverage the potential dependence of the band position was found to be linearly dependent on the inverse of the bulk dielectric constant of the solvent. An electrostatic model was developed to represent the interaction between adjacent adsorbate molecules. This model provides evidence in support of an island formation mechanism.
