EC-STM electrochemical-scanning

Other Electrochemical Approaches EC-ALE has also been employed for the formation of CdTe via the UPD of Te and Cd in sequence. The UPD of Cd has been performed in an acidic solution containing CdS04 and the UPD of Te has been carried out in a basic solution in which Te02 was dissolved [97]. EC-STM (electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy) has been used to study the EC-ALE of CdTe growth. A two-step EC-ALE process consisting of ex situ Te UPD from a basic Te solution, followed by in situ Cd UPD from an acidic solution, has been reported [98].
