Cyclic Voltammetry

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapter

Abstract

The qualitative aspect of cyclic voltammetry has made it a general tool for the evaluation of electrochemical systems. With regard to materials specifically, the technique has found use as a method for investigating the electro-synthesis of materials (including conducting polymers and redox-produced crystalline inorganics), the mechanism of corrosion processes, the electrocatalytic nature of various metallic systems, and the photoelectrochemical properties of semiconducting junctions. Here a general description of the cyclic voltammetric technique is provided along with some examples focusing on materials science applications.
