Computational and experimental study of the cyclic voltammetry response of partially blocked electrodes. part 1. nonoverlapping, uniformly distributed blocking systems

The cyclic voltammetry response of partially blocked electrodes was modeled finite difference simulations and a method presented for determining currents at electrode surfaces, which have a well-defined geometric blocking pattern. The comparison of theory with experiment suggested that the modeling of hexagonally distributed blocking systems was superior to that of the cubically arranged ones.
