Some conclusions relating to the appearance of mossy zinc and its features are also drawn. It is shown that spongy zinc deposits represent natural crystallization at lower current densities and consist of small microcrystals of the same lattice characteristics as those of the compact electrogrowth modes. Some impurities and additives enhance whereas others rather retard or even suppress the mossy growth of zinc, creating various induction periods for spongy electrogrowth (the synergetic amplification and counteraction effect). It is shown that spongy deposits grow whenever the exchange current approaches or exceeds the limiting current and hence the appearance of mossy zinc is a feature of chloride rather than of sulphate or alkaline media. The spongy growth appears to be mass transport controlled. The situation becomes even more complex because the mossy deposit frequently accompanies black zinc oxide as excess metallic zinc, while the crystalline forms at and close to the limiting current appear to be of the same nature even under microscopy analysis.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22037,"journal":{"name":"Surface Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1985-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0376-4583(85)90071-8","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89054978","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is proposed that the oxide film formed in air, which consists of an outer γ-FeOOH layer and an inner Fe₃O₄ layer, dissolves according to the following cell reactions: an outer cathodic reaction <em>γ</em>-<em>FeOOH</em>+<em>H</em>₂PO₄^-+3H⁺+e→FeH₂PO₄⁺+2H₂O with <em>E</em>°=1.049 V, an inner cathodic reaction <em>Fe</em>₃O₄+3H₂PO₄^-+8H⁺+2e→3FeH₂PO₄⁺+4H₂O with <em>E</em>°=1.177 V, and the anodic reactions <em>Fe</em>+2<em>H</em>₂O→Fe(OH)₂+2H⁺+2e with <em>E</em>°=-0.104 V and/or 3<em>Fe</em>+4<em>H</em>₂O→Fe₃O₄+8H⁺+8e with <em>E</em>°=-0.085 V in which the cathodic reaction determines <em>E</em>_corr.

The observed anomalous large cathodic photoeffects on n-type TiO₂ result from either anodic photoproduction or the diffusion of the dissolved oxygen adsorbed on the electrode surface. Anomalous photocurrents occur together with relatively large dark currents, which are caused in n-type semiconductors by electron transfer from the conduction band to the interface via tunnelling through the space charge layer. The influence of the surface states on the determination of the flat-band potential by measurements of either the photocurrent or the impedance was also examined.

The experimental data supporting this hypothesis are taken from the literature and from some new investigations of the photodissolution of ZnO which are described in this paper. The photocurrent was studied potentiostatically and its potential dependence was interpreted using Gärtner's theory for illuminated metal-semiconductor contacts. The linear relation between the photocurrent and the pH corresponds to a stationary state under constant illumination in which the current is equal to the hole oxidation rate of H₂O at pH 9.2 and of H₂O plus ZnO at pH less than 9.2. The decomposition of the ZnO lattice is thermodynamically controlled by the hole oxidation of desorbing OH^- ions to OH radicals which are assumed to form H₂O₂ by combination.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22037,"journal":{"name":"Surface Technology","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1985-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1016/0376-4583(85)90079-2","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75583086","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
