Preferred Label : thickness of diffusion layer;
Detailed label : thickness of diffusion layer in electrochemistry;
IUPAC definition : The distance from the electrode where the ratio \[\frac{c\,-\,c_{{e}}}{c_{0}\,-\,c_{{e}}}\]
reaches a given value. (ce is the interfacial concentration, c is the concentration,
c0 is the value in the bulk solution.) If this ratio is selected as, say, 0.99 the
corresponding thickness of the diffusion layer is denoted by δ 0.99.;
