Non-destructive characterization of CoTSPc electrochemically deposited on gold electrodes by means of synchrotron X-ray microfluorescence

چکیده
This paper gives a detailed study of the morphology and heterogeneity of an electrodeposited cobalt tetrasulphophthalocyanine tetrasodium salt (Co(II)TSPc) layer. A continuous potential cycling of the electrode between two potentials can lead to a modification of a bare electrode. During the modification, a non-destructive characterization by means of scanning synchrotron X-ray fluorescence radiation has been made as a function of scan number. Moreover, electrochemical and SR-XRF measurements were performed in order to calculate the adsorbed Co surface concentration and to distinguish between monomer and dimer adsorption. 2005 Elsevier B.V.

Platinum particles were grown directly by an electrodeposition process on electrochemically treated carbon paper (CP) for kinetic study of carbon monoxide (CO) desorption. The treatment on CP was performed by applying −2 V for cathodic oxidation over 5 min. Treated CP was characterized by FTIR to investigate the oxygen groups on its surface. CO surface coverage at each temperature was determine...
