Interfacial Infrared Vibrational Spectroscopy

  • Chapter
Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry

Part of the book series: Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry ((MAOE,volume 17))

Abstract

The last five years have been to electrochemical infrared spectroscopy what the 1940s were to standard infrared spectroscopy. Prior to World War II, Raman spectroscopy was the most commonly used form of vibrational spectroscopy. The development of infrared technology, particularly detector technology, during World War II led to the rapid growth of infrared spectroscopy. In part owing to the relative cost advantage, the use of infrared spectroscopy rapidly overtook Raman spectroscopy for routine vibrational analyses. The advent of the laser produced a resurgence in Raman spectroscopy but it still ranks far behind infrared spectroscopy in routine use. We are today on the verge of a period in which rapid growth in electrochemical infrared spectroscopy can be expected. Furthermore, as will be discussed below, infrared methods may have greater sensitivity and versatility as a general spectroscopic probe for electrochemical systems than Raman methods. The recent development of electrochemical infrared spectroscopy resulted not from technological breakthroughs but from the marriage of well-established electrochemical and spectroscopic techniques.
