Observation of a photocatalytic effect in the oxidation of CO adsorbed on Pt(100) and Pt(111) surfaces

The rate of oxidation, at 298 K, of CO adsorbed to high initial coverages on Pt(100) and Pt(111) surfaces is increased by irradiation by a VUV beam from a He resonance lamp. The effect is shown to be connected with the desorption of adsorbed CO, probably caused by secondary electrons produced by the...
