Resumo

We have constructed a scanning tunneling (STM) for operation in electrochemical conditions in electrolyte solutions. The electrochemical potentials of the tunneling tip and the substrate with respect to a reference electrode can be simultaneously controlled. The apparatus offers a new possibility for complete in situ observation of electrode surfaces in electrolyte solutions under potentiostatic conditions. The electrochemical deposition and dissolution of Ag have been investigated with this instrument.
