三聚氰胺与蜜勒胺在Au (111)表面的自组装和氢键识别

Melamine and melem molecules are widely used precursors for synthesizing graphitic carbon nitride (g-C₃N₄), the latter also a hot two-dimensional material with photocatalytic applications. The molecular structures of both are respectively identical to the repeating units of two distinct g-C₃N₄ phases. In this work, the adsorption and self-assembly of melamine and melem on an Au(111) surface were investigated with low-temperature scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). Particularly, the patterns of hydrogen bonds (HBs) in their assemblies were identified and compared. It was found that melamine can only form one type of HB and two kinds of assembly structures, whereas melem can form three types of HBs and six kinds of assembly structures in total. Moreover, the involved HBs can be transformed by tip manipulation. These findings may provide a new strategy for tuning the functionality of surface self-assemblies by manipulating intermolecular hydrogen bonds. This also paves a route for the in situ synthesis of g-C₃N₄ on metallic surfaces and subsequent investigations of their physicochemical properties.

Au单晶表面氟表面活性剂FSN自组装膜的电化学行为

研究Au(111)和Au(100)表面非离子型氟表面活性剂FSN自组装膜的电化学行为.电化学扫描隧道显微术和循环伏安法测试表明,在0～0.8 V电位区间,FSN自组装膜未发生氧化还原,均一性好,可稳定地存在于电极表面,并显著抑制硫酸根离子在电极表面的吸附和Au单晶表面的重构.在FSN自组装膜Au单晶电极的初始氧化阶段,Au(111)表面有少量突起,而Au(100)表面呈现台阶剧烈变化,但FSN自组装膜的吸附结构没有改变.与Au(100)表面相比,Au(111)表面形成的FSN自组装膜可更有效地抑制Au表面的氧化.

氧化锌有序结构在Au(111)和Cu(111)上的生长

利用NO₂或O₂作为氧化剂,研究了氧化锌在Au(111)和Cu(111)上的生长和结构。NO₂表现了更好的氧化性能,有利于有序氧化锌纳米结构或薄膜的生长。在Au(111)和Cu(111)这两个表面上,化学计量比氧化锌都形成非极性的平面化ZnO(0001)的表面结构。在Au(111)上,NO₂气氛下室温沉积锌倾向于形成双层氧化锌纳米结构;而在更高的沉积温度下,在NO₂气氛中沉积锌则可同时观测到单层和双层氧化锌纳米结构。O₂作为氧化剂时可导致形成亚化学计量比的ZnO_x结构。由于铜和锌之间的强相互作用会促进锌的体相扩散,并且铜表面可以被氧化形成表面氧化物,整层氧化锌在Cu(111)上的生长相当困难。我们通过使用NO₂作为氧化剂解决了这个问题,生长出了覆盖Cu(111)表面的满层有序氧化锌薄膜。这些有序氧化锌薄膜表面显示出莫尔条纹,表明存在一个ZnO和Cu(111)之间的莫尔超晶格。实验上观察到的超晶格结构与最近理论计算提出的Cu(111)上的氧化锌薄膜结构相符,具有最小应力。我们的研究表明,氧化锌薄膜的表界面结构可能会随氧化程度或氧化剂的不同而变化,而Cu(111)的表面氧化也可能影响氧化锌的生长。当Cu(111)表面被预氧化成铜表面氧化物时,ZnO_x的生长模式会发生变化,锌原子会受到铜氧化物晶格的限域形成单位点锌。我们的研究表明了氧化锌的生长需要抑制锌向金属基底的扩散,并阻止亚化学计量比ZnO_x的形成。因此,使用原子氧源有利于在Au(111)和Cu(111)表面上生长有序氧化锌薄膜。

Ordered arrays of semi-crown ligands on an Au(111) electrode surface: in situ STM study

New insights on the Cd UPD on Au(111)

The Cd underpotential deposition (UPD) process on Au(111) was analyzed by means of combined electrochemical measurements and in situ scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). In the underpotential range 300?ΔE (mV) ?400, 2D Cd islands are formed on the fcc regions of the Au(111)‐(√3 × 22) reconstructed surface without lifting the reconstruction. At lower underpotentials, the 2D Cd islands grow and, simultaneously, new 2D islands nucleate and coalesce with the previous ones forming a complete condensed Cd monolayer (ML). STM images and long time polarization experiments performed at ΔE = 70 mV demonstrate the formation of an Au? Cd surface alloy. At ΔE = 10 mV, the formation of the complete Cd ML is accompanied by a significant Au? Cd surface alloying and the kinetic results reveal two different solid‐state diffusion processes. The first one, with a diffusion coefficient D₁ = 4 × 10^?17 cm² s^?1, could be ascribed to the mutual diffusion of Au and Cd atoms through a highly distorted (vacancy‐rich) Au? Cd alloy layer. The second and faster diffusion process (D₂ = 7 × 10^?16 cm² s^?1) is associated with the appearance of an additional peak in the anodic stripping curves and could be attributed to the formation of another Cd_zAu_x alloy phase.

Structure of thiocyanate adlayers on Rh(111): an in situ STM study

In situ scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) was used to examine the structure of thiocyanate adlayers specifically adsorbed on Rh(111) in solutions of potassium hydroxide and perchloric acid, both containing potassium thiocyanate (KSCN). An atomically flat terrace-step structure was consistently observed on Rh(111) surfaces prepared by the flame-annealing-quenching method. The Rh(111)-(1 × 1) atomic structure was discerned on the atomically flat terrace even in the alkaline solution. High-resolution STM images disclosed two different structures of the SCN⁻ adlayers, () and (2 × 2), in the alkaline and the acidic media, respectively. In each structure, an individual adsorbed SCN⁻ ion appeared as a single spot with a constant corrugation height in STM images, suggesting that SCN⁻ ions adsorbed predominantly with their S-ends at particular bonding sites on Rh(111). The difference in the adlayer structure in the two solutions can be attributed to the interaction between adsorbed SCN⁻ and coadsorbed K⁺ in the alkaline solution, and is different from that between adsorbed SCN⁻ and H⁺ in the acidic solution.

Decorated Ru/Au(111) and Os/Au(111) surfaces: An in situ STM and electrochemistry study

The structure and reactivity of bimetallic electrodes obtained by spontaneous deposition of Ru and Os on Au(111) single-crystal surfaces are studied. In situ electrochemical STM and cyclic voltammetry are used to characterize a wide range of surface morphologies thus produced. The STM results on Ru/Au(111) demonstrate a pronounced step decoration, while a random distribution of Ru nuclei, quite uniform in size, occurs on terraces. Osmium deposits show a slight preference for deposition on steps, but it also occurs readily on terraces. However, many of the Os islands grow into multilayer heights. The coverage of the Au(111) by the deposited Ru or Os islands for a particular solution concentration depends on the deposition time. Nanostructures of Ru and Os are tested for catalytic behavior and correlated to CO oxidation activity as measured by CO stripping voltammetry. Published in Russian in Elektrokhimiya, 2006, Vol. 42, No. 11, pp. 1385–1392. Based on the report delivered at the 8th International Frumkin Symposium “Kinetics of the Electrode Processes,” October 18–22, 2005, Moscow. The text was submitted by the authors in English.     

Partial stripping of Ag atoms from silver bilayer on a Au(111) surface accompanied with the reductive desorption of hexanethiol SAM

The interfacial structures of Ag bilayer prepared by underpotential deposition on Au(111) (Ag(2ML)/Au(111)) were determined by ex situ scanning tunneling microscopy and in situ surface X-ray scattering measurements before and after oxidative adsorption and after reductive desorption of a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of hexanethiol (C₆SH) in alkaline ethanol solution. While no structural change was observed after oxidative formation of C₆SH SAM on the Ag(2ML)/Au(111) in an ethanol solution containing 20 mM KOH and 0.1 mM C₆SH, some of the Ag atoms in the bilayer were stripped when the SAM was reductively desorbed.
