Electrode degradation under oxidizing conditions is a major drawback for large-scale applications of platinum electrocatalysts. Subjecting Pt(111) to oxidation-reduction cycles is known to lead to the growth of nanoislands. We study this phenomenon using a combination of simultaneous <i>in situ</i> electrochemical scanning tunneling microscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Here, we present a detailed analysis of the formed islands, deriving the (evolution of the) average island growth shape. From the ...[more]
