Microelectrode Techniques in Electrochemistry

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Modern Aspects of Electrochemistry ((MAOE,volume 22))

Abstract

Microelectrode techniques have been increasingly utilized in electrochemistry since the distinct advantages of low-dimensioned electrodes began to be realized. Electrodes of micrometer dimensions were practically not used in electrochemical research or practice prior to 1980, but interest in them has increased exponentially during the past decade. Because many of the undesirable aspects of electrochemical techniques are reduced with microelectrodes and because they are easily implemented and involve relatively low costs, a growing number of laboratories are applying microelectrode techniques to investigate a wide variety of problems in diverse systems, some of them not accessible with conventional, larger electrodes. The purpose of the present chapter is to describe the most salient features of microelectrodes, reviewing the sound theoretical framework that has been woven around their use, as well as to discuss some practical aspects such as construction and handling techniques, instrumentation, and some of the problems to which they have been applied.
