Initial atomic-scale oxidation pathways on a Ni–15Cr(100) alloy surface
Abstract To understand the atomistic phenomenon behind initial oxidation processes, we have studied the nanoscale evolution of oxide growth prior to the formation of a complete layer on a Ni–15 wt%Cr(100) alloy surface using scanning tunneling microscopy/spectroscopy (STM/STS). At the onset of oxida...
