The electrochemical characterization of diamond is just beginning. The study reported here deals with the growth by energy‐assisted CVD of impurity‐doped diamond electrodes (see Figure) sufficiently conductive for electrochemical measurements. The electrochemical activity of the electrodes towards various analytes, their capacitance and flat‐band potentials in several electrolytes, and their photocurrent response are discussed.
