Abstract

The performance of two electrode architectures with broadly similar overall active electrode areas are examined. The first is an electrode comprising a single contiguous area (a disc) and the second is an electrode in which the cumulative electrode area is dispersed over a wide area as a 50 nm thickness platinum nanoband. A direct comparison of the electrochemical performance of these two electrodes has been made. The relatively simple nanoband electrode architecture is shown to have benefits, including two orders of magnitude greater mass transport limited currents, the ability to measure faster electrode kinetics (by a similar factor), a three orders of magnitude lowering of the Limit of Detection and a significantly reduced susceptibility to hydrodynamic perturbations. The consequences and implications of these performance characteristics on the uses of such a nanoband electrode have been considered.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
