Different types of charge storage mechanisms at unmodified graphite vs. glassy carbon electrodes in acid sulphate supporting solution containing potassium hexacyanoferrate (II) redox active electrolyte, have been revealed by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and supported by cyclic voltammetry experiments. Reversible charge transfer of Fe(CN)6 redox reaction detected by assessment of CVs o...

There has been substantial progress over the last decade towards miniaturizing implantable microelectrodes for use in Active Implantable Medical Devices (AIMD). Compared to the rapid development and complexity of electrode miniaturization, methods to monitor and assess functional integrity and electrical functionality of these electrodes, particularly during long term stimulation, have not prog...

Large-scale high-energy batteries with electrode materials made from the Earth-abundant elements are needed to achieve sustainable energy development. On the basis of material abundance, rechargeable sodium batteries with iron- and manganese-based positive electrode materials are the ideal candidates for large-scale batteries. In this review, iron- and manganese-based electrode materials, oxide...

In this paper, the effects of infiltration of La2NiO4 (LNO) as a mixed ionic and electronic conductor (MIEC) on the electrochemical performance of porous strontium doped lanthanum manganite (LSM) oxygen electrode of solid oxide cells, in the temperature ranges of 650-850 °C, is reported. XRD and FE-SEM results of the LNO sample calcined at 900 °C confirmed the formation of single phase LNO nano...

Abstract Density functional theory (DFT) simulations of the oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are considered essential for understanding limitations water splitting. Most DFT calculations OER use an acidic mechanism and standard hydrogen electrode (SHE) as reference electrode. However, experimental studies usually carried out under alkaline conditions using reversible (RHE) The difference between...

The marmoset (Callithrix jacchus) is a valuable non-human primate model for studying behavioral and neural mechanisms related to vocal communication. It is also well suited for investigating neural mechanisms related to cochlear implants. The purpose of this study was to characterize marmoset temporal bone anatomy and investigate the feasibility of implanting a multi-channel intracochlear elect...

Residual acoustic hearing can be preserved in the same ear following cochlear implantation with minimally traumatic surgical techniques and short-electrode arrays. The combined electric-acoustic stimulation significantly improves cochlear implant performance, particularly speech recognition in noise. The present study measures simultaneous masking by electric pulses on acoustic pure tones, or v...

abstract wenner direct contact method is a method of estimating apparent electrical conductivity (eca) of agricultural soils in situ. this method can be affected by factors such as quality of electrodes in contact with soil, type of employed electric current, moisture content, clay content and compaction of soil. in this research, the effect of electrode type (rod and plate) and electric curren...

Development of high-performing lithium-based batteries inevitably calls for a profound understanding and elucidation the reactivity at electrode–liquid electrolyte interface its impact on overall performance safety. The formation, composition, properties, mechanisms cathode interphase (CEI) formation function are still to large extent unknown most battery materials, whereas same is well conside...
