Abstract

Electron transfer in the electrode–solution interface is responsible for the signal in the electrochemical sensor. However, the Electrical Double-Layer (EDL) characteristic is usually ignored in signal modeling. Here, we constructed a model based on the reaction–diffusion equation to describe the dynamics in the EDL during sensing. With this model, many common experimental phenomena, such as transient/steady-state current variation or detection nonlinearization, can be unraveled by exploring the effects of position, kinetics proportionality coefficient (k), and reaction order ([Formula: see text]). We also put forward some suggestions to improve the stability and linear detection range for future sensor design.
