In-situ Exchange Mechanism for Dye Molecules and Cations On the Nano-semiconductor Film/Electrolyte Interface

This communication uses EQCM in combination with the galvanostatic method to study in-situ exchange mechanism for dye molecules and cations on the nano-film surface under a constant potential. The relationship between dye molecule desorption mass and charge was analyzed. A theoretical model was established to obtain the important parameters of cation exchange number and apparent valence electron number during dye desorption, and the microscopic desorption mechanism of the dye is further revealed.
