The peak potential is -0.62 V (vs. SCE). The peak current is proportional to the concentration of ADM. The electrochemical behavior of the system was studied by the linear-sweep and cyclic voltammetry. The experiments showed that the reduction at Co/GCE is a quasi-reversible process with adsorption. According to Laviron¡¯s theory, the electrode reaction rate constantk 0 and the electron transfer coefficienta are determined to be 2.15 s 1 and 0.62, respectively. The composition of the surface, valence state of elements and depth distribution of elements on the surfaces of Co/GCE were determined by the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Auger electron spectroscopy. The experiments showed that Co was surely implanted into the surface of GCE. The implanted Co element in the form of Co-C catalyzed the reduction of ADM. %K adriamycin %K ion implantation %K modified electrode %K electrochemical behavior %K surface analysis %U http://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/BF03183387
