Abstract

Numerical methods were used to calculate the influence of geometry-induced current and potential distributions on the impedance response of a blocking disk electrode with a local constant-phase element behavior. While the calculated global impedance is purely capacitive, the local impedance has high-frequency inductive loops that were observed in experiments conducted on a stainless steel electrode in electrolyte. The calculated global impedance responses are in good agreement with experimental results obtained using both the steel electrode and a glassy-carbon disk in electrolytes of differing concentrations. The computed local and both local and global ohmic impedances are shown to provide insight into the frequency dispersion associated with the geometry of disk electrodes.
