Complete Spectroelectrochemistry\u00a0Cell Kit<\/b>:\u00a0The Honeycomb\u00a0Spectroelectrochemical Cell\u00a0Kit (AKSTCKIT3) includes 1\u00a0quartz cuvette, 1 cell\u00a0cap, 1 platinum honeycomb electrode, 2 gold honeycomb electrodes, and a\u00a0low profile\u00a0Ag\/AgCl reference electrode. \u00a0Our honeycomb electrode chip contains an onboard working, counter and reference electrode. \u00a0If an alternative reference electrode is needed, we offer a cell cable with a separate reference breakout lead (RRTPE05<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0ACP2E09<\/a>) used with\u00a0the WaveNow and WaveDriver respectively where a separate low profile reference electrode fits into the cell cap. \u00a0Click here for low profile reference electrodes!<\/a><\/p>\n

Electrode Design<\/strong>: The working electrode is perforated with a honeycomb pattern of holes which allow light to pass through the electrode. The active surface of the working electrode includes a metal coating along the inner walls of the holes. As light passes through the holes, the beam grazes the walls of each hole. \u00a0Normally the path length of the electrochemically generated species is the diffusion layer near the surface of the electrode. \u00a0With our honeycomb design the effective path length is the length of the honeycomb card (1.7 mm). \u00a0As a result, molecules with low extinction coefficients are more easily detectable. \u00a0Our quartz cuvette is slotted to fit the honeycomb electrode card. \u00a0The slot also prevents electrogenerated species from diffusing away from the electrode during a spectroelectrochemistry experiment, further improving UV\/Vis absorbance.<\/p>\n

Universal\u00a0<\/strong>Compatibility<\/b>: \u00a0The honeycomb electrode is screen printed on a ceramic card, allowing it to be used for both aqueous and non-aqueous solvents. \u00a0The dimensions of our slotted quartz cuvette is\u00a012.5 x 12.5 x 45.0 mm3<\/sup>, which is the standard size for most UV\/Vis spectrometer cuvette holders. \u00a0While Pine offers a unique cable that connects the\u00a0mini-B USB of the honeycomb cell to our WaveNow and WaveDriver potentiostats, we also offer a generic cable with a mini-B USB to 4 banana jacks that can connect our honeycomb cell to ANY potentiostat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Our unique UV\/Vis spectroelectrochemical cell features a patterned “honeycomb” electrode which mounts easily inside a thin-layer quartz cuvette. A special cuvette cap securely holds the honeycomb electrode card and a separate reference electrode in the proper position within the cuvette.<\/p>\n
