Electrochemistry at Very Small Electrodes

Abstract

Microelectrodes have been fabricated as cylinders and as disks or arrays of disks, by employing both conventional and e-beam lithography techniques. Theory has been developed for diffusion to a disk for a variety of electrochemical techniques, especially square wave voltammetry. Cylindrical carbon fiber electrodes have been used as substrates for anodic stripping voltammetry. Small mercury electrodes have been used as tools for investigating anodization reactions in the absence of supporting electrolyte. The properties of low current at high current density and short electrolyte. The properties of low current at high current density and short diffusional relaxation times have been used for applications to corrosion problems.
