Abstract:Abstract:We have investigated the formation of a platinum thin film from a simple solution of dihydrogen hexachloroplatinate in a low temperature range of 283 to 295 K by a pulse current technique. Despite the low temperature, the platinum thin film observed with a confocal laser scanning microscope does not comprise particle aggregates but dense layer with a small surface roughness that tends to saturate at an initial growth stage. The deposition rate and current efficiency at a fixed average current density … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
