Abstract
With their unique chemical stability and high electron mobility, boron‐doped thin diamond films are likely to have favorable properties for a number of electrochemical applications. A review of the recent developments in this field is presented with critical evaluation of the experimental data. In particular, the relationship between the material's characteristics and the electrochemical behavior of the electrodes is discussed in detail. A number of potential applications for these electrodes are presented: for dimensionally stable electrodes in highly corrosive environments, for discharging toxic effluents, and for electrochemical sensors.
