Electrochemically produced hydrogen bubble probes for gas evolution kinetics and force spectroscopy
The development and characterisation of electrochemically generated hydrogen bubbles for gas evolution kinetics and force spectroscopy are described. Bubbles have been grown at the platinised tip of a commercially available atomic force microscopy (AFM) needle probe (exposed electrode radius rb300 nm) and monitored by CCD camera. Results show consistent bubble growth in galvanostatic conditions. The utility of the bubble probes in AFM force spectroscopy
