ECSA evaluation using the underpotential deposition of mercury (Hg‐UPD) can be applied to metals and oxides. However, research regarding Hg‐UPD is needed because several Hg(II)/Hg(I) redox reactions occur simultaneously, and direct evidence of Hg‐UPD on IrOx has not been reported. We previously confirmed the Hg‐UPD phenomenon on Ir polycrystalline films using the electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) method. However, measurements on IrOx electrodes were not performed. In this study, Ir and IrOx electrodes are prepared by the sputtering method, and their Hg deposition behavior observed by EQCM.

It consists of a carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with clay-supported reduced graphene oxide composite (GrGO/CL@CPE).
