Steady-State Currents at Sphere-Cap Microelectrodes and Electrodes of Related Geometry

Mercury microelectrodes, fabricated by electrodeposition on an inlaid disk, adopt the shape of a sphere cap. This article derives the steady-state diffusion-limited voltammetric current at such electrodes and correlates the current with the radius, area, and volume of the sphere cap. Also predicted...

Zusammenfassung:Mercury microelectrodes, fabricated by electrodeposition on an inlaid disk, adopt the shape of a sphere cap. This article derives the steady-state diffusion-limited voltammetric current at such electrodes and correlates the current with the radius, area, and volume of the sphere cap. Also predicted are the steady-state currents at an entire sphere emerging from an insulating plane.
