A Study of the Initial Stages of Co Deposition on a Silver Electrode in Ammonia Medium Using an Electrochemical Quartz Crystal Microbalance

Figure 13

Schematic representation of cobalt underpotenial deposition process on a silver substrate, which takes into account ammonia adsorption: (a) adsorption of ammonia molecules at potentials more positive than −600 mV; (b) and (c) processes of Co underpotenial deposit formation between −600 and −920 mV; (d) process of total silver substrate covering by cobalt at potentials ranging between −920 and −980 mV.
