Abstract: | The scanning electrochemical microscope (SECM) was used to form platinum microstructures. For this purpose, a thin layer of platinum dichloride was deposited as precursor on different substrates by evaporating it in high vacuum. For the reduction of this precursor the SECM provided methyl viologen radical cations locally as reducing agent. The mechanism of the reduction is discussed. |
