43. The energy level of the normal hydrogen electrode (NHE) is -4.6 eV below the vacuum level (see A. J. Bard, L. R. Faulkner, Electrochemical Methods-Fundamentals and Applications, Wiley, New York 1984). The oxidation potential of ferrocene is 0.67 V versus the NHE (see J.-F. Wang, Y. Kawabe, S. E. Shaheen, M. M. Morrell, G. E. Jabbour, P. A. Lee, J. Anderson, N. R. Armstrong, B. Kippelen, E. A. Mash, N. Peyghambarian, Adv. Mater 1998, 10, 230). The HOMO/LUMO energies were determined using the ferrocene calibration against the vacuum energy level.
