Theory of Electrochemical Diodes

抄録

The electric behaviour of electrochemical diodes, consisting of a pair of indifferent electrodes immersed in an electrolytic solution being capable of reversible oxidation-reduction, was investigated theoretically. The general current-voltage relation was obtained by solving the differential equation of diffusion of ions with the proper boundary conditions. The non-ohmic property, the shunting effect for rapidly changing voltage and the rectifying action were deduced.
