Novel Approach to Studying Local Electrochemical Processes Inside Cavities

Article Preview

Abstract:

Distributions of the electrode information within cavities are much more complex than simulation results. In this paper, a novel set of experiments scanning real potential variations inside cavities under current control were employed to characterize local electrochemical information. Wide variation-fluctuations of electrode potentials have been experimentally revealed. Furthermore, combined with the theoretical analysis and measurement results, kinetic parameters range inside cavities can be indirectly derived.
