چکیده

Electrochemical techniques rely on the stability of a defined reference potential. Due to the need for miniaturization, electrochemical lab-on-a-chip platforms often employ Ag/AgCl quasi-reference electrodes for this purpose. Here, we report on electrochemical artifacts resulting from nanoparticle-electrode collisions originating from standard chlorinated silver wires.

Metal/polypyrrole quasi-reference electrode for voltammetry in nonaqueous and aqueous solutions.

As an alternative to the usual commercial reference and quasi-reference electrodes (QREs), we propose metal (Pt, stainless steel) coated with partially oxidized polypyrrole as a QRE. The electrode is easily fabricated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) with the metal electrode in an acetonitrile or CH2Cl2 solution of 10 mM pyrrole containing 0.1 M Bu4NPF6. These QREs were more stable than the widely us...

Submersible Reference Electrodes Revisited, October 2007

Th is article examines the status of submersible reference electrodes and presents a new design concept for submersible copper/copper sulfate (Cu/CuSO4) electrodes (CSE). In the new concept, the half-cell potential is independent of the salinity (chlorinity) of the electrolyte, the electrode is not subject to contamination, and structure-to-electrolyte voltages do not require correction to the ...
