I have prepared three carbon based electrodes like graphene, MWCNTs, GRAPHENE OXIDE etc. and need to note CV of these.
Please tell is this measurement is necessary for these counter electrodes and what it signifies?
Regards
If you are using three electrode system then counter electrode is one of them. Each electrode has significant role in electrochemical measurements. The counter electrode serves as a source for electrons so that current can be passed from the external circuit through the cell.
These refs[1-3] might help you.

Essentially counter electrode does not directly participate in electrode reactions but helps it indirectly
