and Figure in SI for details). Experiments were repeated 3 -4 times on freshly prepared films under identical conditions. All in-situ experiments were conducted under nitrogen gas purging and using an open-flow through system with a rate of 0.2 mLmin -1 , controlled by a peristaltic pump (Cole-Parmer, Vernon Hills, IL). ATR-FTIR spectra were collected on a Vertex 70 FTIR spectrometer (Bruker Corp., Billerica, MA). After collection, spectra received an atmospheric compensation, a nine-point Savitsky-Golay smoothing and baseline correction. All post-hoc manipulations were performed using OPUS v.7.2 software (Bruker Corp., Billerica, MA).
