Abstract
AbstractPyrolytic carbon films (PCFs) were prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) at different deposition temperatures. As an example of using PCF electrode in electroanalysis, the direct electrooxidation of ascorbic acid (AA) at the PCF electrode was investigated and compared with common carbon‐based electrodes such as glassy carbon (GC), edge plane pyrolytic graphite (EPPG), and basal plane pyrolytic graphite (BPPG) electrodes. It was found that the PCF electrodes prepared under deposition temperatures higher than 1050 °C showed a higher sensitivity and lower overpotential compared to the other carbon electrodes. The electrode was successfully applied for determination of AA in real samples.
