Cyclic voltammetry allows the experimental determination of HOMO and LUMO energy levels.
Cyclic voltammetry is widely recognized and used in experimental electrochemistry to determine the HOMO and LUMO energy levels of molecules and materials from their oxidation and reduction potentials.
The retrieved literature consistently confirms that cyclic voltammetry is a standard experimental technique used to measure oxidation and reduction potentials, which are then used to calculate HOMO and LUMO energy levels for polymers, nanomaterials, and various chemical compounds.
