Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is a crucial tool for the detection and study of various biological substances, from DNA and proteins to viruses and bacteria. It does not require any labelling species, and methods based on it have been developed to study cellular processes (such as cell spreading, adhesion, invasion, toxicology and mobility). However, data have so far lacked spatial info...

as an alternative to chromate conversion coatings, rare-earth coatings especially cerium, because of the low toxicity, have attracted considerable attention. using dip immersion method, cerium-based conversion coating was deposited on aluminum 2024. corrosion resistance was studied in 3.5 wt.% nacl solution using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and surface ...

in this paper, the effect of cationic and anionic ion sizes on the charge storage capability of graphene nanosheets is investigated. the electrochemical properties of the produced electrode are studied using cyclic voltammetry (cv) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) techniques in 3m nacl, naoh, and koh electrolytes. scanning electron microscopy (sem) is used to characterize the mi...

A survey and review of recent patents on electrochemical methods for corrosion monitoring from 1999 to 2009 are presented in this paper. The patents were classified into 4 groups according to different electrochemical theories, which are potential, polarization, electrochemical impedance and electrochemical noise. A future outlook of the development on new research aspects particularly on metho...

Local Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (LEIS) is an emerging discipline in the field of electrochemical research. It is based on the widely accepted Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) technique, a powerful method to determine reaction mechanisms on macroscopic electrodes. When however the electrode represents a heterogeneous behavior, local information is indispensable. This pro...

Carbon nanotubes have generated much research interest and potential applications due to their unique properties such as their high tensile strength, high thermal conductivity, and unique semiconductor properties. Vertically-aligned carbon nanotubes (VA-CNTs) have been used in applications for electrochemical systems in energy storage systems and desalination systems. Typical methods of charact...

Development of appropriate models for the interpretation of impedance spectra in terms of physical properties requires, in addition to insight into the chemistry and physics of the system, an understanding of the measurement error structure. The time-varying character of electrochemical systems has prevented experimental determination of the stochastic contribution to the error structure. A met...

This review paper gives basic knowledge about the Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy. The main working hypotheses for its correct performance are discussed. A detailed presentation of the structural modelling is made. A brief introduction of the basic elements and electrochemical models is done. The different steps of the impedance data analysis: data preprocessing, parametric identificatio...

in this paper, the electrochemical behaviour of passive films formed on aisi 321 stainless steel (aisi 321)immersed in 0.1 m naoh + 0.1 m koh solution was evaluated by different electrochemical techniques. forthis purpose, passive films were formed at open circuit potential for 1 to 12 hours and then electrochemicalmeasurements were done. the polarization curves suggested that aisi 321 showed e...
