Laser induced current transients applied to a Au(111) single crystal electrode. A general method for the measurement of potentials of zero charge of solid electrodes

The current transients arising after the sudden heating of an electrode by high-power laser irradiation have been studied. The method has been applied to a Au(111) single-crystal electrode in contact with perchloric and sulfuric acid solutions. The current transient can be explained as due to the re...
