In situ Raman spectroelectrochemistry of azobenzene monolayers on glassy carbon.

چکیده
In situ Raman spectra of chemisorbed azobenzene (AB) monolayers on glassy carbon (GC) electrodes were observed under potentiostatic conditions in acetonitrile (ACN) with tetrabutyl-ammonium tetrafluoroborate (TBA-BF4). The Raman intensities of these spectra were high below -1000 mV, and this is attributed to the change in absorbance of AB on GC. In this paper, we describe chemisorbed AB molecules on GC electrode surfaces under potentiostatic conditions.

Raman spectra of zinc phthalocyanine monolayers adsorbed on glassy carbon and gold electrodes by application of a confocal Raman microspectrometer
Raman spectra of zinc phthalocyanine monolayers, adsorbed on gold and on glassy carbon surfaces (electrodes), are presented. These spectra have been recorded with the electrodes inside and outside an electrochemical cell filled with an aqueous electrolyte. A confocal Raman microspectrometer was used. It was demonstrated that, because this spectrometer uses low laser intensities, no damage of th...

Azobenzene (AB) and 4-nitroazobenzene (NAB) were covalently bonded to carbon surfaces by electrochemical reduction of their diazonium derivatives. The N(1s) features of XPS spectra of modified surfaces had intensities expected for monolayer coverage. However, the Raman spectra were significantly more intense than expected, implying an increase in scattering cross section upon chemisorption. A l...

This review is focused on charge-transfer reactions at carbon nanotubes and fullerenes. The spectroelectrochemistry of fullerenes deals with the spin states of fullerenes, the role of mono-anions and the reactivity of higher charged states in C60. The optical (Vis-NIR) spectroelectrochemistry of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) follows changes in the allowed optical transitions among the ...
متن کاملIn situ raman spectroelectrochemistry of electron transfer between glassy carbon and a chemisorbed nitroazobenzene monolayer.
In situ Raman spectroscopy was used to monitor 4-nitroazobenzene (NAB) in an electrochemical cell, both as a free molecule and as a chemisorbed monolayer on a glassy carbon (GC) electrode surface. Reduction of free NAB exhibited two well-defined voltammetric couples in acetonitrile, and the accompanying spectral changes supported a mechanism involving two successive 1-e(-) transfers. Raman spec...
متن کاملDefects in individual semiconducting single wall carbon nanotubes: Raman spectroscopic and in situ Raman spectroelectrochemical study.
Raman spectroscopy and in situ Raman spectroelectrochemistry have been used to study the influence of defects on the Raman spectra of semiconducting individual single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). The defects were created intentionally on part of an originally defect-free individual semiconducting nanotube, which allowed us to analyze how defects influence this particular nanotube. The form...
