Hi,

In June 2018 I made a batch of Silver film depositions on Si plates. At the time, I used a A306 Metal Box Evaporator, 3 cm of 99.99% Silver wire. As of today (03.04.2019) there is no visible oxidation (see picture "silver_2018.06").

In January, a colleague made another batch of Silver depositions, but the plates look tarnished (see "silver_2019.01"). Any idea what the difference could be due to?

Please, see pictures attached.

Best,

Laura
