Abstract
ELECTRICAL resistance measurements have been used for investigating the mechanism of chemisorption and catalysis on metals and oxides, but comparable data for carbon are scarce. We have demonstrated1 that the resistance of vacuum evaporated carbon films increases during oxygen chemisorption. We have also used this technique, which rapidly provides information on chemisorption by carbon, to study the kinetics and energetics of oxygen chemisorption1.
