Cyclic Voltammetry

Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) is an electrochemical technique that measures redox reactions by varying the voltage applied to an electrode and monitoring the resulting current. Developed by Nicholson and Shain in 1964, CV is one of the most widely used electrochemical methods, providing rapid information about the redox potentials and electron-transfer kinetics of molecules and materials.
