Abstract
A classical electrochemistry problem related to the polarization of a graphene electrode immersed in an aqueous solution and subjected to a small external ac voltage is revisited. The Poisson-Nernst-Planck equations with proper boundary conditions are linearized and normalized, leading to an analytical formula for the impedance of the electrochemical system containing a graphene-metal electrode pair. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is utilized to compare the impedance behavior of the graphene-metal electrode pair with the standard metal-metal electrode pair for a range of ion concentrations in the electrolyte. Also studied is the electrochemical capacitive spectroscopy to provide a detailed analysis related to the effects of the quantum capacitance of graphene on the total capacitive properties of the system.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry is the foremost international journal devoted to the interdisciplinary subject of electrochemistry in all its aspects, theoretical as well as applied.
Electrochemistry is a wide ranging area that is in a state of continuous evolution. Rather than compiling a long list of topics covered by the Journal, the editors would like to draw particular attention to the key issues of novelty, topicality and quality. Papers should present new and interesting electrochemical science in a way that is accessible to the reader. The presentation and discussion should be at a level that is consistent with the international status of the Journal. Reports describing the application of well-established techniques to problems that are essentially technical will not be accepted. Similarly, papers that report observations but fail to provide adequate interpretation will be rejected by the Editors. Papers dealing with technical electrochemistry should be submitted to other specialist journals unless the authors can show that their work provides substantially new insights into electrochemical processes.
