Developments in Electrochemistry: The Phase-Shift Method and Correlation Constants for Determining the Electrochemical Adsorption Isotherms at Noble and Highly Corrosion-Resistant Metal/Solution Interfaces

“…(1) and (2) show that the effect of R P on −φ for intermediate frequencies is negligible. These aspects are completely overlooked, confused, and misunderstood in the comments on the phase-shift method by Horvat-Radosevic et al [30,32,34]. Correspondingly, all of the simulations of the phase-shift method using Eq.…”

“…Correspondingly, all of the simulations of the phase-shift method using Eq. (1) that appear in these comments (where C P does not include C D ) [30,32,34] are basically invalid or wrong [27,28]. All of the analyses of the effect of R P on −φ for intermediate frequencies are also invalid or wrong (see Supporting Information of Refs.…”

“…[27][28][29][30][31] The objections to the phase-shift method are substantially attributed to a misunderstanding of the phase-shift method itself. 25,26) Note especially that all of the objections to the phase-shift method can be attributed to confusion regarding the applicability of related impedance equations for intermediate frequencies and a unique feature of the Faradaic resistance for the recombination step [1].…”
