Giant Magnetic Field Effects on Electroluminescence in Electrochemical Cells

Giant magnetic field effects on the electroluminescence intensity with a magnitude of 400% are demonstrated by using Lorentz force effects in an electrochemical co-reaction with planar electrodes. A magnetic field increases the ion penetration in the diffusion layer in the electrochemical reaction through Lorentz force effects and greatly enhances the electro-generated chemiluminescence intensity (ECL), leading to giant magnetic field effects in liquid states.
