Applications of scanning tunneling microscopy

Wu, Xian Liang and Lieber, Charles M., Applications of Scanning Tunneling Microscopy to Inorganic Chemistry. 39 431... [Pg.640]

The very new techniques of scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) have yet to establish themselves in the field of corrosion science. These techniques are capable of revealing surface structure to atomic resolution, and are totally undamaging to the surface. They can be used in principle in any environment in situ, even under polarization within an electrolyte. Their application to date has been chiefly to clean metal surfaces and surfaces carrying single monolayers of adsorbed material, rendering examination of the adsorption of inhibitors possible. They will indubitably find use in passive film analysis. [Pg.34]

Research into such small particles requires further development and the application of modem physical-chemical methods. Visualization of the surface stmcture at the atomic level needs further study by means of scanning tunnel microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, ferromagnetic resonance, small-angle x-ray scattering, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, etc. [Pg.195]
