Electrode kinetics at carbon electrodes and the density of electronic states

Abstract

Marcus–Hush theory relates the rate of electron transfer to the density of electronic states of the electrode material. Through use of a carbon microelectrode—for which the density of states is expected to vary as a function of potential—this predication is validated for graphitic materials by measurement of a variety of outer-sphere redox systems.
