What are the characteristic parameters of a cyclic voltammogram?

The parameters of a cyclic voltammogram are the peak potential and the peak current (the peak width at half the peak current is also sometimes measured). Since there are two peaks associated with a redox reaction (one on the forward scan and one on the reverse scan), it is standard practice to quote the difference of the peak potentials and the ratio of the peak currents.
