Study of Synchrotron Radiation from Wet Electrode Surfaces.

Abstract

EXAFS spectra of halide ions adsorbed on Cu and Ag will be acquired to determine the site geometry of the adsorbed ion. In order to achieve sufficiently high sensitivity, the x-ray fluorescence emitted by the absorbing atom will be detected. Discrimination between surface and solution species will be achieved in one of two ways: by modulating the adsorption and subtracting the low coverage spectrum from the high coverage, or by removing the electrode from solution in such a way that a very thin layer of electrolyte remains on the surface.
