Abstract

Scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) is unique among scanning probe methods in its quantitative rigor and in its ability to study samples in liquid environments with ease. SECM has become a popular and mature technique with a wide range of applications in electrochemical imaging, chemical kinetics, biological redox processes, and electrocatalytic reactions, among others. A major development in recent years is the ongoing shift from micrometer-scale experiments to the nanoscale. Recent advances in methodology have greatly increased the capacity of SECM to characterize interfaces at the nanoscale and to obtain molecular-level chemical information. The principles of SECM will be briefly introduced, and recent advances using this technique will be discussed.
