Abstract
The electrochemical reduction of self-assembled monolayers formed from p-nitrothiophenol has been studied in situ by surface-enhanced infrared (IR) absorption and Raman scattering (SEIRA and SERS, respectively) spectroscopies. The sensitivity of SEIRA spectroscopy is 20 times higher than that of IR reflection-absorption (IR-RAS) spectroscopy. Combined use of SEIRA and SERS spectroscopies is useful for detailed analyses of electrode reactions and vibrational properties of adsorbed molecules.
