Significant two-step potential-induced surface reconstruction observed on Au(111) in aqueous sulfuric acid

We report in this communication, through in situ STM images correlated with time, and ab initio simulations of binding energies, how potential-induced surface reconstruction is formed on Au(111) single crystal in 0.1 M H2SO4. It was found that while the electrode potential after lifting the reconstr...
