Prof. Jaraslov Heyrovsky, Charles Univ., Prague, Czech Republic, Nobel Prize in Chemistry 1959 for discovery of Polarography Prof. Petr Zuman, Clarkson Univ. Heyrovsky’s PhD student and my advisor, “scientific grandpa” to some of you!
Modern 3-electrode potentiostat Voltage follower Output, I vs. E To computer
Counter = I Rcell I Ru working Counter reference working
Steady state I-E methods • dc polarogrpahy • rotating disk voltammetry • square wave voltammetry Square wave input
Staircase input waveforms are used to approximate linear scans
