Surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy has almost been restricted to the study of only three noble metals of Au, Ag and Cu for two decades. Recently, a new confocal Raman microscope and special surface pretreatments have allowed the acquisition of high‐quality surface Raman spectra of organic and inorganic molecules adsorbed on bare Pt, Ni, Co, Fe, Pd, Rh, Ru and Si electrodes over a wide applied potential range for the first time. The present results demonstrate several advantages of in situ surface Raman spectroscopy that could probably make it a general technique widely used in surface science and electrochemistry. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
