Abstract :
The problem of how to attach an optical glass fiber to a copper plate was solved with the use of microscale electrolyser of special design. The respective laboratory scale technology was presented. The results were documented by photos of ready elements. The matter of relation between deposition by means of constant current electrolysis without potential control and the process realized with the use of cyclic voltammetry and chronopotentiometry techniques was raised and discussed.
