Preferred Label : half-peak potential;
IUPAC definition : In linear-sweep voltammetry, triangular-wave voltammetry, cyclic triangular-wave voltammetry,
and similar techniques, the potential of the indicator electrode at which the difference
between the total current and the residual current is equal to one-half of the peak
current. This potential is attained in the interval in which the rate of the charge-transfer
process, and hence the (absolute value of the) current, increase monotonically with
time.;
