When simulating AC voltammograms (absolute admittance vs. DC potential)
one should account for a spherosymmetrical diffusion (in case of a
spherical electrode) by placing a resistance with a value
r0*(sigma)i*(2/Di)^.5 in parallel with the Warburg impedance of species
i (Electroanalytical Chemistry, a series of advances, vol.4. Marcel
Dekker, N.Y., 1970. p.53). I was wondering how the value of this
resistance would change for a hemispherical electrode, and, in general,
for any sub- or superhemispherical microelectrode.

Thanks a lot!

i'm really digging deep into the memory on this one, but wouldn't this
have been addressed during the development of polarography in the
1940's or 1950's?

i'm sorry that i can't give you an answer, but i do recall this
question being raised and the development of the dropping mercury
electrode as a means to factor it out....

You are probably right. Gerischer (1951) was the one who solved it for
a spherical electrode. But I am having troubles getting anything in
case of a hemispherical electrode...

The resistance to a hemisphere, if it is sitting on an insulating
plane, is half that to a whole sphere. Flattened or bulging shapes
are more complicated, and are of interest in these days of ultramicro
electrodes. Check papers by Oldham and coworkers for the last 20 years
or so, also Amatore.

Thank you Dr. Britz, I appreciate your help.
