Abstract
As a model of passivation at a micro or nanoparticle, we have modelled a passivating reaction at a microelectrode of hemispherical geometry. The reaction is considered to lead to either the formation of a surface-bound species or diffusion of product into bulk solution. A dimensionless parameter, p, of value 0 to 1.0 can be used to describe the balance between the two processes. We have simulated the first two linear sweep voltammograms (LSV) under different values of p and have simulated the peak width of the first LSV under different values of scan rate and p. These simulations were used to relate the peak width to the value of p. The results were compared to the characteristics of passivation at a microdisk electrode. The equation was used to analyse the oxidation of dopamine at hemispherical Ga electrodes, fabricated by the deposition of liquid phase Ga onto Pt microdisks.
作为微型或纳米粒子的钝化模型,我们模拟了半球形微电极的钝化反应。该反应被认为会导致表面结合物种的形成或产物扩散到大体积溶液中。无量纲参数 p 的值为 0 至 1.0,可用来描述这两个过程之间的平衡。我们模拟了不同 p 值下的前两个线性扫描伏安图 (LSV),并模拟了不同扫描速率和 p 值下第一个 LSV 的峰值宽度。该方程用于分析多巴胺在半球形镓电极上的氧化情况,半球形镓电极是通过在铂微盘上沉积液相镓而制成的。
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry is devoted to all aspects of solid-state chemistry and solid-state physics in electrochemistry.
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry publishes papers on all aspects of electrochemistry of solid compounds, including experimental and theoretical, basic and applied work. It equally publishes papers on the thermodynamics and kinetics of electrochemical reactions if at least one actively participating phase is solid. Also of interest are articles on the transport of ions and electrons in solids whenever these processes are relevant to electrochemical reactions and on the use of solid-state electrochemical reactions in the analysis of solids and their surfaces.
The journal covers solid-state electrochemistry and focusses on the following fields: mechanisms of solid-state electrochemical reactions, semiconductor electrochemistry, electrochemical batteries, accumulators and fuel cells, electrochemical mineral leaching, galvanic metal plating, electrochemical potential memory devices, solid-state electrochemical sensors, ion and electron transport in solid materials and polymers, electrocatalysis, photoelectrochemistry, corrosion of solid materials, solid-state electroanalysis, electrochemical machining of materials, electrochromism and electrochromic devices, new electrochemical solid-state synthesis.
The Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry makes the professional in research and industry aware of this swift progress and its importance for future developments and success in the above-mentioned fields.
