    4. Instrumentation

    Commercial SECM equipment has appeared fairly recently, making it possible to start democratizing the use of this technique in the laboratory; but, unlike other local probe microscopies such as AFM, its routine use is still not widespread.

    4.1 Basic equipment

    The basic SECM device is quite simple and consists of four main elements:

    • an electrochemical cell, including the UME probe, sample, reference electrode and counter-electrode (for simplicity, in some cases the reference electrode can also be used as a counter-electrode);

    • a device for monitoring the relative positions of the UME and the substrate;

    • a simple potentiostat or a bipotentiostat, if...
