Movement of the deposit segment in thin layer electrochemical cell – a conjugate dissolution/deposition behavior

In this paper we report a novel phenomenon taking place in the thin layer electrodeposition of Pb. A segment of dendrite deposit, which was segregated from the cathode, moved and shortened spontaneously in the electrochemical cell. We find that this behavior arises from the concurrent electrodissolu...

Summary:In this paper we report a novel phenomenon taking place in the thin layer electrodeposition of Pb. A segment of dendrite deposit, which was segregated from the cathode, moved and shortened spontaneously in the electrochemical cell. We find that this behavior arises from the concurrent electrodissolution and electrodeposition reactions taking place at two ends of the isolated segment of the deposits. A mechanism inducing this phenomenon is suggested.
