Abstract
Using cyclic voltammetry combined with an atomic absorption analysis, it is shown that, under anodic polarization of an FeSi single crystal in 0.5 M H 2SO4, the metal-enriched (100) face dissolves faster. Fluoride-containing c ompounds promote anodic process due to dissolution of the surface layer of SiO2 and Si.
