Self-Assembly and Characterization of Pt Nanoparticles by Electrochemistry and In-Situ FTIR Reflection Spectroscopy

Abstract

用化学还原法制备了铂金属纳米微粒 ,透射电子显微镜 (TEM)表征纳米Pt微粒的平均直径为 2 5nm。通过二硫醇将Pt纳米微粒组装到多晶金电极表面。以Fe(CN) 4- 3-6 的氧化还原作为探针反应的电化学研究表明 ,Au表面组装二硫醇后抑制了电极 /溶液界面的电子传递过程 ,而在二硫醇上再组装铂纳米微粒后 ,电子传递又可进行。运用电化学FTIR反射光谱研究了Pt纳米微粒组装电极在酸性介质中CO的吸附 ,检测到CO的线型、桥式吸附态 ,分别在 2 0 30和 184 5cm- 1 附近给出红外吸收谱峰 ,并且有增强红外效应。此外 ,还观察到Pt纳米微粒上的CO孪生吸附态。红外吸收峰位于 2 10 0cm- 1 附近。Pt nanoparticles (Pt n) were prepared by chemical reduction method. The average dimension of Pt n is about 2.5 nm in diameter determined from TEM studies. The Pt nanoparticles were then self-assembled on massive Au substrate. The process of self-assembly was investigated with Fe(CN) 4-/3- 6 for redox probe reaction. The result showed that the dithiol assembled on Au surface is inactive for electron transfer. However after assembly of Pt nanoparticles on the dithiol, the Au/SS-Pt n electrode becomes conductive again for electron transfer. The adsorption of CO on the Pt nanoparticles self-assembled on Au substrate in 0.1 mol·L -1 H 2SO 4 was studied by using in situ FTIR reflection spectroscopy. IR absorption of linear and bridge bonded CO species was observed around 2 030 and 1 845 cm -1 respectively. IR absorption of twin bounded CO adsorbed on the Pt nanoparticles was also observed about 2 100 cm -1. The results illustrated that the IR absorption of CO adsorbed on the Pt nanoparticles has been significantly enhanced. The present study is devoted to revealing the intrinsic properties of self-assembly system of nanoparticles, and is of importance in applications of electrocatalysis as well.国家自然科学基金 (2 0 0 2 1 0 0 2,2 98330 60,2 0 0 2 30 0 1 );; 教育科学研究基金资助项
