Scanning electrochemical microscopy. 32. Gallium ultramicroelectrodes and their application in ion-selective probes.

چکیده
Gallium ultramicroelectrodes for amperometric measurements in scanning electrochemical microscopy were fabricated by introduction of liquid Ga into drawn glass micropipets. Cyclic voltammetry of Ru(NH(3))(6)(3+) and the use of this species for SECM imaging is described. Double-barrel micropipet tips with a Ga amperometric electrode and an ion-selective (K(+)) potentiometric probe can also be constructed. This probe was used to image the K(+) activity near a 20-μm-diameter lumen of a glass capillary.

Nanometer-Sized Electrochemical Sensors
Nanometer-sized glass-sealed metal ultramicroelectrodes (UMEs) have been prepared using a laser-based micropipet puller. The tip was exposed to solution either by etching away a small portion of glass insulator or by micropolishing. The characterization of the UMEs was carried out by a combination of steady-state voltammetry, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and scanning electrochemical micr...
متن کاملDisk-generation/ring-collection scanning electrochemical microscopy: theory and application.
The potential of ring-disk ultramicroelectrodes (RD UMEs) as probes for scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) was investigated both theoretically and experimentally. In particular, the disk-generation/ring-collection (DG/RC) mode of operation was considered. In this case, the interaction of two species with the substrate under investigation can be followed simultaneously from single tip cu...
متن کاملScanning electrochemical microscopy. 48. Hg/Pt hemispherical ultramicroelectrodes: fabrication and characterization.
Hg/Pt hemispherical ultramicroelectrodes (UMEs) (25-microm diameter) were prepared either by electrodeposition from a mercuric ion solution or by simple contact of the Pt disk to a hanging mercury drop electrode. The two methods produced equivalent tips. Optical inspection and electrochemical characterization of these Hg tips with methyl viologen, cobalt sepulchrate trichloride, and hexaminerut...
متن کاملPreparation and characterization of carbon powder paste ultramicroelectrodes as tips for scanning electrochemical microscopy applications.
We report a simple method of preparation of carbon paste ultramicroelectrodes (UMEs) for use as probe tips in scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). Carbon paste UMEs were prepared by packing the carbon paste into a chemically etched tip of a Pt-UME or a pulled glass capillary. Carbon-based UMEs are attractive in micrometer to nanometer gap experiments and in electrodeposition of single me...
متن کاملScanning electrochemical microscopy. 41. Theory and characterization of ring electrodes.
Ring ultramicroelectrodes, which are of particular interest as probes for scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM), combined with near-field scanning optical microscopy, were investigated. Theoretical SECM tip current-distance (approach) curves for a ring electrode were calculated by numerical (finite element) analysis. The SECM curves obtained were a function of the geometry of the tips incl...
