The electron transfer rate constant of an electrochemical reaction and the conductance quantum are fundamental concepts that drive processes ranging from nanoscale electronic circuits to photosynthesis. In this paper, it is demonstrated that they are correlated with the concept of electrochemical capacitance. The relationship between electron transfer rate, quantum transport and electrochemical capacitance encompasses the theory of electron transfer rate proposed by Rudolph A. Marcus, and potentially unites electronics and electrochemistry.
电化学反应的电子转移速率常数和电导量子是驱动从纳米级电子电路到光合作用等一系列过程的基本概念。本文证明了它们与电化学电容的概念相关。电子转移速率、量子输运和电化学电容之间的关系涵盖了鲁道夫·A·马库斯提出的电子转移速率理论，并有可能将电子学和电化学统一起来。
