Steady-state voltammograms for the oxidation of [Fe(CN)6]4- , Fe2+ and ascorbic acid were measured at a series of microdisk electrodes with different radii. The conventional log-plot shows that oxidations of [Fe(CN)6]4- and ascorbic acid are reversible and totally irreversible, respectively, but the oxidation of Fe2+ is reversible at larger radius microdisk electrodes and quasi-reversible at smaller radius microdisk electrodes. The application of the log-plot to the voltammograms yielded a straight line, its slope allows us to evaluate the charge transfer coefficient and the intercept gives values of the electron transfer rate constant.展开更多

Results of theoretical calculation made it possible to use cyclic voltammetry to evaluate heterogeneous rate constants under intermediate diffusion conditions. At relatively low scan rate, the distortion of current-voltage can be reduced due to small iR drops and charging current. The effects of transfer coefficient, alpha, kinetic parameter, lambda(=k(0)r/4D), and switching potential, xi(8), on potential peak separation are discussed in detail. The relationship obtained in this paper between potential peak separation and lambda is in good agreement with that in Ref. 14, whose authors have got their results by using digital simulation technique. After the experiment of Fe(CN)(6)(4-) oxidation, k(0) and alpha were obtained by the theory of this paper. The result agrees with that in Ref. 19.展开更多
