Abstract
The structure, topography and growth of silver oxide deposits formed under galvanostatic and potentiostatic conditions in potassium hydroxide solutions has been studied by X-ray and electron diffraction and by electron microscopy. The argentous oxide deposit cannot be classified as being either continuous or discontinuous, but has features associated with both types of film. A random deposit is formed initially followed by the development of one-degree orientation. The argentous oxide film has a marked {111} orientation and a proportion of {112} orientation parallel to the electrode surface. Orientated argentic oxide deposits were not found under any conditions.
