Abstract
A method recalibrates in situ a comparison electrode integrated into an electrochemical system. The electrochemical system includes a working electrode, a counter electrode, and an electrolyte. The method includes verifying a potential of the comparison electrode relative to the working electrode or to the counter electrode in situ, detecting whether there is a drift in the potential of the comparison electrode relative to a potential plateau for which the comparison electrode was functionalized or designed, and when the drift is detected, recalibrating the comparison electrode in situ.
