Abstract

Conditions for electrochemical deposition of atomically flat, pseudomorphic Pt layer on Au(111) electrode surface were established based on electrochemical and in situ resonance surface X-ray scattering (RSXS) studies on potential dependence of Pt deposition. When Pt was deposited at relatively large overpotential, a three-dimensionally grown rough Pt layer was formed on a Au(111) surface. When the overpotential was very small, Pt nuclei was formed but did not grow any more. At appropriate overpotential between these two potentials, atomically flat, pseudomorphic Pt layer was grown with a layer-by-layer growth mode.
