Surface-enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy enables in situ monitoring of electrochemical reactions at time-resolutions ranging from microseconds to milliseconds without the interference from the bulk solution. Simultaneous infrared and electrochemical measurements provide significant insights into chemistry and physics at the electrochemical interface.

Isotropic rotations of cations and anions were observed in both type cubic phases. Self-diffusion of the cation was detected only in the CsCl-type cubic phase, while that of the anions is considered to be excited in both types of cubic phases.
