Cyclic voltammetry is a fundamental experimental method for characterizing electrochemical surfaces. Despite its wide use, a way to quantitatively and directly relate cyclic voltammetry to ab initio calculations has been lacking. We derive the cyclic voltammogram for H on Pt(111) and Pt(100), based solely on density functional theory calculations and standard molecular tables. By relating the g...

Atomic spectrometry and electrochemistry are usually recognized as independent analytical tools used for different purposes. Here, a brief review is given of the advantages of using electrochemistry in the various fields of atomic spectrometry techniques. In the first part, the application of electrochemical preconcentration before the atomic spectrometry will be addressed and exemplified. Elec...

Electrochemistry of PANI/Metal Composites in Basic Solutions

The synthesis and crystallographic characterization of a complex possessing a well-defined {2Fe3S(μ-H)} core gives access to a paramagnetic bridging hydride with retention of the core geometry. Chemistry of this 35-electron species within the confines of a thin-layer FTIR spectro-electrochemistry cell provides evidence for a unprecedented super-reduced Fe(I)(μ-H)Fe(I) intermediate.

The effect of B doping on the surface (111) reactivity has, in the present study, been investigated for various surface terminations, H, OH, Oon-top, and F. This type of surface modification has experimentally been proven to be extremely important for, for example, applications based on surface electrochemistry. Density functional theory (DFT) has here been used to study both the local and more...

We demonstrate that carbon electrodes screen-printed directly on cellulose paper can be employed to perform bipolar electrochemistry. In addition, an array of 18 screen-printed bipolar electrodes (BPEs) can be simultaneously controlled using a single pair of driving electrodes. The electrochemical state of the BPEs is read-out using electrogenerated chemiluminescence. These results are importan...

A bipolar electrode (BPE) is an electrically conductive material that promotes electrochemical reactions at its extremities (poles) even in the absence of a direct ohmic contact. More specifically, when sufficient voltage is applied to an electrolyte solution in which a BPE is immersed, the potential difference between the BPE and the solution drives oxidation and reduction reactions. Because n...
