Detection of electrochemiluminescence from floating metal platelets in suspension

Abstract

We present a generation of electrochemiluminescence (ECL) signal, based on square shaped gold electrodes with a size of 50 μm positioned inside a fused silica capillary. The ECL was generated using electric pulses with duration in the range from 100 ms to 5 s and an electrical field strength from 300 V cm−1 to 500 V cm−1. We have demonstrated that the electrochemical reaction with detectable optical output can be produced using freely moving and thus disposable electrodes.
