Y. Yang et al., LOCAL PHOTOCURRENT CHARACTERISTICS OF LEAD-OXIDE FILMS IN ACID-SOLUTION AND AN OPTICAL STORAGE PHENOMENON, Journal of the Electrochemical Society, 142(4), 1995, pp. 52-54
Local photoelectrochemical characteristics of lead oxide films in acid
solution at different potentials have been investigated using in situ
photoelectrochemical microscopy (PEM). It is found that the distribut
ion of lead oxide at lead electrodes is potential-dependent, especiall
y after being exposed to a laser beam. In addition, based on a novel '
'photoelectrochemical'' mode, an ''optical storage'' concept was demon
strated. Some characters were successfully written on lead oxide films
using a laser-scanning technique.
