Actually Roger, you leave me no options here, I am not qualified to predict deposition phases of low current sputtering of silver and its possibly degenerated phases on to a microscope slide under ambient conditions above a water bath.
Fred: Common, I'm capturing the very same material that is quenched by the water bath. However, catching it on a glass slide will probably not provide the same degree of quenching as occurs in water. So if I find no silver oxide on the slide, there's no chance it could have formed (being more severely quenched) in water. BTW, you're on with that bet. So, you may finally get your sample IF you're right. However, on another post I DID make a REALISTIC proposal about sending you a sample of my HVAC CS. I'm awaiting your reply.
