What Does SRET Stand For?

SRET stands for Scanning Reference Electrode Technique

The Scanning Reference Electrode Technique (SRET) is an electrochemical method used to measure local redox potentials in complex environments. It employs a mobile reference electrode that scans the surface of an electrochemical system, allowing for high-resolution spatial mapping of potential variations. This technique enhances the understanding of localized electrochemical processes, making it valuable in fields such as corrosion studies, sensor development, and materials science. SRET is particularly useful for investigating inhomogeneous systems where traditional potentiometric methods may fall short.
