The electrochemical
deposition of nickel(II) tetraamino-phthalocyanine
(AmNiPc) was done using a CHI 660C electrochemical workstation (CH

mixture was homogenized using ultrasonic mixing and then purged with
argon (Ar) for 15 min before the electrochemical tests. The system
consisted of three electrodes: a glassy carbon (GC, EDAQ, 1 mm dia.)
or ITO/borosilicate glass electrode (Präzisions Glas &
Optik GmbH, PGO) acting as a working electrode, Ag wire as a pseudoreference
electrode, and a GC rod applied as a counter electrode. The electrodes
were copiously rinsed with DMF and mounted in a Teflon holder prior
to use. The electrochemical deposition of AmNiPc was conducted by
means of CV with the following process parameters: the potential range:
(−1.8, 1.4) V, the scan rate: 0.1 V/s, and 3, 5, 10, or 15
scan cycles. The further investigations were conducted on the layer

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Open-circuit potentials of iridium oxide pH microelectrodes were tested against a silver chloride reference electrode in pH buffer solution in a clean room, which was maintained at about 20 °C. The potentials of the iridium oxide pH microelectrodes were measured with an electrochemical workstation (CHI 660c, CH Instrument, Austin, TX, USA). As shown in Figure 2, the electrochemical tests all adopted a double electrode structure, and a pH meter was always used for calibration during the tests. The response time, long-term stability, reversibility, and sensitivity of the iridium oxide pH microelectrodes were examined. In pH sensitivity experiments, measurements were carried out in a series of commercial pH buffer solutions with pH values of 4.00, 6.86, and 9.18, respectively; the solutions were air-saturated without stirring. In the pH response time and long-term stability experiments, measurements were carried out in commercial pH buffer solutions with a pH value of 7.00. In reversibility experiments, measurements were carried out in a series of commercial pH buffer solutions with pH values of 1.00, 4.00, 7.00, 10.00, and 13.00, respectively, and the pH change was realized by switching the iridium oxide pH microelectrodes from one pH buffer solution to another.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
