Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a widely used method for battery tests in manufacturing and automotive field applications. As such, accurate measurement of the over broad frequency spectrum high relevance, also requiring specific calibration methods evaluation error bounds. Here, we report first time comprehensive uncertainty analysis calibrated EIS batteries. We aim to identify...

Polyalanine derivatives containing cysteamine linker R-(Ala)14NH-(CH2)2-SH, where R is ferrocenecarbonyl or hydrogen, were synthesized and then used to form self-assembled monolayers on gold. The tilt angles and the packing density of the molecules within monolayer assemblies were determined by FTIR spectroscopy and scanning tunneling microscopy, respectively. Electrochemical properties of mono...

LaNi4.4Sn0.25 and graphite powder disk electrodes sandwiched between two nickel screens were used as working electrodes in 6.0 M KOH and in 1.0 M LiPF6 in propylene carbonate-ethylene carbonate-dimethyl carbonate ~1:1:3! solution, respectively. Different electrochemical impedance spectroscopy protocols were used for analysis of the kinetics of insertion and extraction of hydrogen and lithium in...

The Li⁺ diffusion coefficients in Li⁺-adsorbed graphene systems were determined by combining first-principle calculations based on density functional theory with Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. The calculated results indicate that the interactions between Li ions have a very important influence on lithium diffusion. Based on energy barriers directly obtained from first-principle calculations f...

The preparations and characterization of polypyrrole – polyethylene glycol (PPy-PEG) films are reported in this paper. The composite films were synthesized by electrochemical method in 0.2 mol·L-1 Py and 5% PEG in 0.2 mol·L-1 oxalic acid. The electrochemical behaviour of PPy and PPy-PEG coatings has been investigated in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) by cyclic voltammetry, Tafel plots and elec...

A philosophy for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is presented which integrates experimental observation, model development, and error analysis. This approach is differentiated from the usual sequential model development for given impedance spectra by its emphasis on obtaining supporting observations to guide model selection, use of error analysis to guide regression strategies and experi...

The corrosion inhibition properties of the benzothiazole BTH and benzotriazole BT inhibitors on the aluminum in 0.25 M HCl solution were studied. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy EIS, electrochemical noise EN and potentiodynamic polarization techniques were used to investigate the inhibition properties of the inhibitors. Scanning electron microscope SEM was also utilized in order to inves...

This study demonstrates the application feasibility of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) in measuring estrogen (17β-estradiol) in gas phase. The present biosensor gives a linear response (R2 = 0.999) for 17β-estradiol vapor concentration from 3.7 ng/L to 3.7 × 10-4 ng/L with a limit of detection (3.7 × 10-4 ng/L). The results show that the fabricated biosensor demonstrates better det...

In this paper, we investigated the electrode structure of the electrical bio-sensor to reduce impedance measurement fluctuation. Five pairs of the same electrodes were formed on the PCB substrate, and a fluidic channel was constructed with a double-sided tape and polycarbonate cover so that all the electrodes had the same reagent distribution. In order to find an electrode structure with little...

The understanding of the electrochemical properties of nanopores is the key factor for better understanding their performance and applications for nanopore-based sensing devices. In this study, the influence of pore dimensions of nanoporous alumina (NPA) membranes prepared by an anodization process and their electrochemical properties as a sensing platform using impedance spectroscopy was explo...
