To detect lead ions using electrochemical voltammetric analysis, Infrared Photo-Diode Electrode(IPDE) was applied via cyclic and square wave stripping voltammetry. Lead ions were deposited at 0.5 V(versus Ag/AgCl) accumulation potential. Instrumental measurements systems were made based on a simple and compact detection system. The stripping voltammetric and cyclic voltammetric optimal parameters were searched. The results yielded a cyclic range of $40{\sim}240mgl^{-1}$ Pb(II) and a square wave stripping working range of $0.5{\sim}5.00mgl^{-1}$ Pb(II). The relative standard deviation at 2 and 4 $mgl^{-1}$ Pb(II) was 0.04% and 0.02%(n=15), respectively, using the stripping voltammetric conditions. The detection limit was found to be 0.05 $mgl^{-1}$ with a 40 sec preconcentration time. Analytical interference ions were also evaluated. The proposed method was applied to determine lead ions in various samples.

A microfabricated chip with in-channel electrochemical cell using interdigitated gold electrode was fabricated for sensitive electrochemical analysis. The gold electrodes were fabricated on glass wafer using thermal evaporator and were covered using PDMS mold containing microchannel for analyte and electrolyte. The active area of each electrode was $250\;{\mu}m{\times}200\;{\mu}m$ with a gap of 200 ${\mu}m$ between the electrodes. Microelectrodes results in maximum amplification of signal, since the signal enhancement effect due to cycling of the reduced and oxidized species strongly depends on the inter electrode distance. Analytes such as methylene blue and guanosine were characterized using the fabricated electrodes and their electrochemical characteristics were compared with conventional bulk electrodes. The device so developed shall find use as disposable electrochemical cell for rapid and sensitive analysis of electroactive species.

순환 전압-전류 그림에서 루비안산의 전기화학적 행동을 조사해 보면, 루비안산은 두 개의 환원 봉우리가 나타나는데, 첫번째 봉우리는 $S^{2-}$ 봉우리와 일치하므로 HgS 생성에 의한 환원 봉우리이며, 두번째 봉우리는 매우 약하며 확인되지 않았다. 시차 펄스 음극 벗김 전압-전류법으로 미량의 루비안산을 정량하는 방법을 고찰하였다. 루비안산의 정량을 위하여 pH 10.0, 붕산염 완충용액을 사용하였고, 최적 조건은 붕산염 완충용액의 농도 0.05M, 축적전위 -0.30V, 축적시간 120초, 그리고 주사속도 10mV/sec이다. 이 때 루비안산의 검출 한계는 $2.7{\times}10^{-8}M$이다.

uranium(VI)-cupferron 착물에 대한 네모파 전압전류법적 연구를 pH5.0의 0.1M아세트산 완충용액에서 수행하였다. 네모파 전압전류법을 이용한 미량의 우라늄 정량과 분석시의 최적조건에 대해 검토하였다. Uranium(VI)-cupferron 착물의 환원반응은 반응물만이 전극 표면에 흡착되는 비가역적인 과정으로 진행되는 반응임을 알 수 있었다. Uranium(VI)의 검출한계는 -0.1 V vs. Ag/AgCl에서 흡착시간을 30sec로 하였을 때 7.9nM(2 ppb)이었으며, 전극 표면에 흡착된 uranium(VI)-cupferron착물의 양은 ${\Gamma}_{max} = (4.9{\pm}0.3){\times}10^{-10} mol{\cdot}cm^{-2}$이었다

In this technical note, I report the analysis of electrochemical impedance data measured with potential sweeping. Even though the instruments for voltammetric impedance measurements have been developed for decades using different approaches, their applications are limited due to the lack of well-established protocols to easily analyze voltammetry data. To fill this gap, the singular point of the specific potential is considered that is only determined by the standard/formal potential and the transfer coefficient and is independent of the kinetics and experimental parameters (including revertability) of faradaic reactions. Taking the advantage of its inertness, I suggest an approach employing the singular point as a reference to obtain general electrochemical information. As all the concepts and methods are verified with numerical simulations, this technique is expected to be applied for complex reactions involving electrochemical and chemical reaction mechanisms.

Voltammetric analysis of mercury ions was developed using paste electrodes (PEs) with DNA and carbon nanotube mixed electrodes. The optimized analytical results of the cyclic voltammetry (CV) of the $1{\sim}14ng\;L^{-1}Hg(II)$ concentration and the square wave (SW) stripping voltammetry of the $1{\sim}12ng\;L^{-1}Hg(II)$ working range within an accumulation time of 400 seconds were obtained in 0.1 M $NH_4H_2PO_4$ electrolyte solutions of pH 4.0. For the relative standard deviations of the $1ng\;L^{-1}Hg(II)$, which were observed at 0.078% (n = 15) at the optimum conditions, the low detection limit (S/N) was pegged at $0.2ng\;L^{-1}(7.37{\times}10^{-13}M)$ for Hg(II). The results can be applied to assays in biological fish kidneys and wastewater samples.

Here we propose a new equation by which we can estimate the baseline for measuring the peak current of the reverse curve in a cyclic voltammogram. A similar equation already exists, but it is a linear algebraic equation that over-simplifies the voltammetric curve and may cause unpredictable errors when calculating the baseline. In our study, we find a quadratic algebraic equation that acceptably reflects the complexity included in a voltammetric curve. The equation is obtained from a laborious numerical analysis of cyclic voltammetry simulations using the finite element method, and not from the closed form of the mathematical equation. This equation is utilized to provide a virtual baseline current for the reverse peak current. We compare the results obtained using the old linear and new quadratic equations with the theoretical values in terms of errors to ascertain the degree to which accuracy is improved by the new equation. Finally, the equations are applied to practical cyclic voltammograms of ferricyanide in order to confirm the improved accuracy.

Two redox processes of methyl viologen (+2/+, +/0) in acetonitrile were investigated by using channel electrode voltammetric and in situ electrochemical ESR methods. Two separated unequal plateau currents of the first (+2/+) and second (+/0) redox processes of the viologen were observed in the channel electrode voltammograms and showed a cube-root depedndence on the electrolyte flow rate, respectively. The simple Levich analysis resulted in two different diffusion coefficients of $D_{+2}=2.2{\times}10^{-5}\;cm^2/s$ and $D_+=3.0{\times}10^{-5}cm^2/s$ from the limiting currents. In situ electrochemical ESR studies were performed for the monocation radicals generated at the potentials of the two plateau currents in the electrolyte flow range $1.3{\times}10^{-1}{\geq}v_f{\geq}2.7{\times}10^{-3}\;cm^3/s$. Backward implicitfinite difference method was employed to simulate the electrochemical kinetic problem of two sequential electron transfers ($MV^{+2}+e{\leftrightarrows}MV^+,\;MV^{+}+e{\leftrightarrows}MV^0$) coupled with reversible comproportionation ($MV^{2+}+MV^0{{\leftrightarrows}^{k_f}_{k_b}}2MV^+$). $k_f$ was found to be greater than ($10^6M^{-1}s^{-1}.

The trans-$A_2B_2$ porphyrin and Ni-porphyrin derivatives were synthesized by Suzuki coupling of bromoporphyrin with arylborate as a key step. The band gaps of those complexes were measured from their absorption, emission and cyclic voltammetric data. All the LUMO energy level of porphyrin derivatives is lower than that of P3HT, and the HOMO energy level is evaluated higher than the HOMO of PCBM.

A new copper hexacyanoferrate modified electrode was constructed by mechanical immobilization. The modified electrode was characterised by cyclic voltammetric experiments. Electrocatalytic oxidation of glutathione was effective at the modified electrode at a significantly reduced overpotential and at broader pH range. The modified electrode shows a stable and linear response in the concentration range of 9 ${\times}$10-5 to 9.9 ${\times}$10-4M with a correlation coefficient of 0.9995. The modified electrode exhibits excellent stability, reproducibility and rapid response and can be used in flow injection analysis for the determination of glutathione.
