Abstract
Structured oxide films were investigated with a scanning droplet cell. Different electrochemical techniques for surface analysis of valve me tals (especially Al) are used. The electrolyte droplet had a diameter of same 100 mu m. Impedance and potential sweep spectra are compared w ith current transients of pulse step experiments. The lateral resoluti on is limited to 1/10 of the droplet diameter. The normal resolution i s better than 1 nm. (C) 1997 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
