Abstract
Square-wave voltammetry of surface redox reactions is considered as an adequate model for a protein-film
voltammetric setup. Here we develop a theoretical approach to analyze the effects of temperature on squarewave
voltammograms. The performed simulations address the surface redox reactions featuring slow,
modest and fast electron transfer. The theoretical calculations show that the temperature affects the squarewave
voltammetric responses in a complex way resulting in a variety of peak shapes. Temperature effects on
the phenomena known as “quasireversible maximum” and “split SW peaks” are also analyzed. The simulated
results can be used to analyze the redox mechanisms and kinetic parameters of electron transfer reactions in
protein-film criovoltammetry and other surface-confined redox systems. Our analysis also shows how
“abnormal” features present in some square-wave voltammetric studies can easily be misinterpreted by
postulating “multiple species”, “stable radicals”, or additional processes. Finally we provide a simple
algorithm to use the “quasireversible maximum” to determine the activation energy of electron transfer
reactions by surface redox systems.
