Scanning Reference Electrode Technique (SRET)
Scanning Reference Electrode Technique (SRET)
The principle of the scanning reference electrode technique (SRET) is shown in this Demonstration. SRET is an electrochemical technique that uses a reference electrode as a probe to investigate local interface processes, including localized corrosion, galvanic corrosion, and potential distribution. The potential of the probe is a function of the relative position between the probe (electrode B) and the sample surface (electrode C).
