27. 3 solution, the electrode was polarized at 1.95 V for 2 min and subsequently at 0.0 V for 30 s. This pretreatment induces surface defects (graphite edge sites) due to the electrochemical oxidation of the HOPG surface (refs 28 and 29).

32. 18OH monolayer on a Au(111) electrode lowers the interfacial differential capacity and that phase change of the layer is observed with potential change (refs 1, 9, 10, and 13). These phenomena do not take place on HOPG (or even if they do, it cannot be observed as capacity or current change), because HOPG is not a metal. The interracial capacity of a HOPG electrode is not governed by the double layer but is totally dominated by the space-charge layer in the HOPG (refs 33-37). Note that for the same reason, attempts to see the adsorption of heptyl viologen on the HOPG surface by using only capacity measurements should be abandoned.
