Abstract
A new method for preparing thin oxide films is described. It makes use of s low diffusion of oxygen through a permeable layer, towards the metal to be oxidized. We have used this method to oxidize copper. The permeable layer i s a dense silver film. The formation of the oxide was followed in situ in a n attempt to measure the resistance of the cell.
