Abstract
Boron-doped diamond has been investigated as one of themost promising electrode materials for analytical chemistry since 1990s becauseof its unique electrochemical properties including outstanding stability, wideelectrochemical window, and flexible surface termination. In recent years, dueto the development of diamond CVD techniques, surface-enlarged diamondelectrode is now widely available, and this progress has attracted newattention in energy related topics such as energy storage and conversion.
In this talk, basic electrochemical properties of diamondas well as the diamond-related research in Fraunhofer Institute for AppliedSolid State Physics (IAF) will be introduced. Furthermore, our method fordiamond surface enlargement, especially the templated-growth method, will bediscussed in detail. Finally, some new and exciting possibilities of applyingsuch surface-enlarged electrodes in energy, especially solar energy, conversionapplications will be proposed as future topics for scientific research.
