Abstract
Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), coupled with chemical vapour deposition (CVD) grown single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) network disk-shaped ultramicroelectrodes (UMEs), gives stable, very well-defined and highly reproducible EIS responses for electrolysis of a simple outer sphere redox couple (FcTMA(+/2+)). The resulting EIS data can be fitted accurately using a simple electrical circuit model, enabling information on double-layer capacitance, diffusion coefficient of the electroactive species and the rate constant of ET (k(0)) to be extracted in a single EIS experiment. These values are replicated for a range of mediator concentrations and UME sizes (in the range 25-100 mu m diameter) demonstrating the robustness of the method. These initial studies bode well for impedance based electroanalysis using SWNT network UMEs. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
