Abstract
The effects of short 1-ms voltage pulses of 5V on the precipitates on an electropolished and etched surface of a microalloyed steel have bee n studied. Such pulses are commonly used for tip cleaning during scann ing tunneling microscopy. It is proposed that the voltage pulses can b e used as a new type of analytical tool in studying the characteristic features of precipitates.
