Abstract

Electrochemical measurements in a three electrode system under finite conditions, e.g., at an electrode coated with a polymer film incorporating functional molecules have been simulated using a program written in the JAVA language. The simulation with or without a catalytic reaction by the functional molecules has been performed using the program. The shape of a cyclic voltammogram under finite conditions is different from that under infinite conditions applied to ordinary solution electrochemistry. The fraction of the functional molecules that accepted charges (RCT) has been calculated by integrating a concentration distribution. The current under finite conditions in a potential-step measurement deviated from that under infinite conditions above RCT ≈ 0.5. The program was introduced to a document on the electrochemistry written in HTML. It can be used by many students in an electrochemistry class without heavy loads on the server computer.
