Abstract :
Electrochemical microcantilever sensors in combination with scanning probe microscopy offer unique tool for solid-liquid interface characterization as well as localized chemical speciation of electro-active species. The resonance response can be used to probe the physical characteristics of the interface while electrochemically induced surface stress variation can be used for chemical speciation. Scanning the solid-liquid interface using a combined physical and electrochemical cantilever probe provides chemically functional images of surfaces and interfaces.
