[0002] The basic form of the current commercial three-electrode electrochemical workstation is that the counter electrode, the reference electrode and the working electrode are in the same feedback loop of an operational amplifier, and are in a highly coupled state. The control of the driving voltage is performed by controlling the reference electrode Ref and the working electrode WE, and the voltage monitoring of the main current loop from the counter electrode CE to the working electrode WE is lacking. In some measurements, such as trace analysis, the basic potentials among the Ref, CE and WE are required to be known and controllable, and in some biochemical applications, the reference electrode Ref and the working electrode WE are required to be equipotential, and an equipotential working surface is formed in the electrolyte, but the ordinary electrochemical workstation cannot achieve this conveniently.

[0003] Due to the high coupling between the counter electrode and the reference electrode, when multiple different counter electrodes exist in the electrolytic cell and work in sequence or simultaneously, the configuration is difficult to expand due to coupling. For example, when both CV (cyclic voltammetry) and EIS (electrochemical impedance measurement) are required for an electrolytic cell system, two electrochemical workstations must be used alternately to measure, and the installed reference electrode circuit must be replaced at the same time.

[0042] In order for those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0043] Embodiment one, as shown in the present application, an isopotential decoupling modular electrochemical workstation, aims to provide a high-sensitivity, high-precision electrochemical analysis platform, especially in micro-current trace detection and complex electrochemical measurement. Figures 1-3

[0044] Specifically, the electrochemical workstation includes an electrolytic cell, a transconductance, and a microprocessor. The electrolytic cell includes a reference electrode, a counter electrode, and a working electrode. The reference electrode is grounded and provides a stable potential as a reference in electrochemical testing. The counter electrode is connected through a voltage driving module for controlling the input of the voltage signal. This electrode is responsible for controlling the flow of current.

[0045] The reference electrode is grounded, and the counter electrode is connected with the voltage driving module. The counter electrode, the voltage driving module, and the reference electrode form a voltage driving system, which is responsible for applying or controlling the required voltage signal.

[0046] The working electrode and the counter electrode form a current observation system through the transconductance. The transconductance device can accurately control the flow and measurement of current, ensuring the stable distribution of current between different electrodes.

[0047] Among them, the potential of the working electrode and the reference electrode is equal, so as to ensure that there is no potential difference between the two, thereby reducing the measurement error.

[0048] ​The voltage driving module can adopt a first voltage driving circuit and / or a second voltage driving circuit; and the current observation system is provided with at least one.

[0049] The modular design of the application improves the flexibility and adjustability of the system, and the mode and parameters of voltage driving can be adjusted as needed.

[0050] The isopotential decoupling modular electrochemical workstation realizes high-sensitivity and high-precision electrochemical measurement by optimizing electrode configuration, independent voltage driving and current observation system, transconductance design and microprocessor control, and is especially suitable for micro-current trace detection, complex biochemical analysis and experimental requirements of multi-electrode configuration.

[0051] Preferably, the first voltage driving circuit comprises a DAC, a subtractor and a voltage follower; wherein the DAC is used to convert the digital command sent by the microprocessor into an analog voltage and send it to the subtractor; the subtractor adjusts the output range of the DAC from 0-V to -V / 2-V / 2, and then adjusts the output impedance via the voltage follower, and the other end of the voltage follower is connected to the counter electrode. Voltage conversion by the subtractor can ensure that the voltage signal is within a specific range of the working voltage of the counter electrode, so as to optimize the electrochemical reaction or reduce unnecessary signal deviation. The voltage follower is used to adjust the impedance of the output voltage to ensure stable transmission of the signal and avoid the load impact on the counter electrode and the electrolytic cell. It has high input impedance and low output impedance, so it can ensure accurate voltage control while reducing signal attenuation. The output end of the voltage follower is connected to the counter electrode to provide an accurately controlled voltage signal, thereby adjusting the current and potential in the electrochemical reaction.

[0052] Preferably, the second voltage driving circuit comprises a PWM, a driving circuit and a half-bridge circuit; wherein one end of the PWM is connected to the microprocessor, and the other end is connected to the driving circuit, which serves as an amplifier and converter to ensure that the PWM signal can effectively drive the half-bridge circuit and realize efficient voltage adjustment; the driving circuit is connected to the counter electrode through the half-bridge circuit; and the half-bridge circuit is also connected to a positive and negative power generator. Through the positive and negative power generator, it is ensured that it can provide sufficient positive and negative voltages, and in the subsequent operational amplifier, the power supply of the operational amplifier can also receive positive and negative voltages, so that the desired positive and negative currents can be output in the electrolytic cell.

[0053] The PWM signal is generated by the microprocessor and controls the switching frequency of the voltage driving circuit. The PWM signal adjusts the output voltage by changing the duty cycle to control the current.

[0054] The half-bridge circuit is used for converting the signal of the driving circuit into the voltage output required by the counter electrode. By switching between the positive and negative power supply through the switching tube (such as MOSFET), the half-bridge circuit can provide a high-precision, adjustable voltage to meet the precise control of the electrode potential in the electrochemical experiment.

Preferably, the resistance value of the current sampling resistor R1 is 10k. Since the operational amplifier is powered by a bipolar power supply, the forward or reverse current can be collected. Since the positive input end of the transconductance is grounded like the reference electrode, according to the virtual short and virtual open principle of the operational amplifier, the negative input end of the transconductance is also at the same potential as the ground, that is, at the same potential as the reference electrode. Thus, the equipotential design is realized.

By designing the shape of the reference electrode and the working electrode, it can be ensured that the respective solution impedance of the working electrode and the reference electrode to the point is equal, so as to have equal basic current. According to the current superposition principle, different substances combined on the surface of the reference electrode will produce Faraday current through oxidation-reduction reaction, and these currents will be captured by the transconductance and then output to the microcontroller through the operational amplifier and the ADC.
