Abstract

A technique commonly used as the final stage of cleaning gold electrode surfaces is to electrochemically form and reduce a monolayer of oxide on the surface. We have investigated the changes on the Au(111) surface during this procedure using in situ electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy.
