Surface-enhanced resonance Raman study of the photoreduction of methylviologen on a p-InP semiconductor electrode
Journal Article

· J. Phys. Chem.; (United States)
The redox reactions of methylviologen (MV) at a silver electrode and at a p-InP electrode have been studied by cyclic voltammetry and Raman spectroscopy. By deposition of a silver island overlayer onto a p-InP semiconductor electrode the surface enhancement effect was obtained, allowing the MV reduction products formed at the semiconductor electrode to be monitored in situ. The photovoltaic response on p-InP electrode was not perturbed by the presence of the silver overlayer. Surface-enhanced resonance Raman (SERR) spectroscopy has verified the adsorption of the products from the reduction reactions MV/sup 2 +/ + e/sup -/ ..-->.. MV/sup +/. and MV/sup +/. + e/sup -/ ..-->.. MV/sup 0/. The Raman spectrum of one-electron and two-electron (MV/sup 0/) reduced methylviologen was obtained by exhaustive electrolysis in acetonitrile solution to provide an assignment of the surface spectra. 31 references, 4 figures.
