So far I used CV for the study of redox properties of molecules.
Is the procedure for determination of conduction/valence bands of materials (I am especially interested in oxides nanoparticles) the same? Should I just add some nanoparticles to dry CH3CN / 0.1M TBATFB and run a CV (100 mV) by using Glassy Carbon WE, Platinum CE, a pseudoreference electrode like Ag wire and reference it vs Fc+/Fc couple?
Thanks in advance.
Dear Dimitru,
A technique that can help you with thatt is the Scanning Tunneling Spectroscopy (STS). It is a versatile and rather inexpensive technique that allows you to determine the Band gap of your materials and therefore have a better understanding of their electronic properties.
I hope you find the input useful.
Best regards,
Georgios
