Frequency Dispersion in Capacity Measurements at a Disk Electrode

Abstract: The geometry of an electrode system affects the frequency dispersion of impedance measurements if the primary current distribution on the electrode is nonuniform. This effect is treated for a disk electrode embedded in an insulating plane with the counterelectrode at infinity. The apparent capacity is found to approach zero at large frequencies. The frequency dependence of the apparent capacity will be much smaller for a spherical electrode tangent to an insulating plane. The latter system is also treated brie… Show more

“…The size of admittance maps is influenced by the AC frequency because the potential distribution depends on this parameter in the case of nonuniform potential distribution induced by the cell geometry. This phenomenon was first predicted theoretically by Newman [19] for a disk electrode embedded in an isolating plane, then expanded and explained in details for other systems in more recent works [20][21][22][23][24][25].…”

“…The mathematical foundation for the simulation of the potential and current distributions was adapted from the works by Newman [19,26] originally developed for a planar disk electrode embedded in a coplanar insulator and successfully applied to other cell geometries in order to investigate the edge effect of the electrode on the impedance response [21,24,25]. This treatment accounts for both the potential drop due to the ohmic resistance of the media and the electrode polarization.…”

“…In contrast to electrodes of conventional dimensions, the measured current is considerably lower. As a result, the ohmic IR drop, even in organic solvents with high resistance, can often be kept sufficiently low [7][8][9][10] and voltammetric experiments can be performed with a specific 'low current' module. On the other hand, a better resolution and lower detection limits are obtained with microelectrodes and array structures because of the enhanced mass transport of electroactive species from radial diffusion [11,12].…”

“…Deviations from ldeality may occur in these cases, owing to rather trivial effects such as capdlary response or creeping [1], shielding by the glass capillary [2,3], and contamination of the mercury surface. The result of such effects is usually a curved complex plane plot, approaching the straight vertical line at higher frequencies.…”
