abstract: Description: A skillful balance of theoretical considerations and practical know how Backed by a team of expert contributors, the Second Edition of this highly acclaimed publication brings a solid understanding of impedance spectroscopy to students, researchers, and engineers in physical chemistry, electrochemistry, and physics. Starting with general principles, the book moves on to explain in detail practical applications for the characterization of materials in electrochemistry, semiconductors, solid electrolytes, corrosion, solid state devices, and electrochemical power sources. The book covers all of the topics needed to help readers identify whether impedance spectroscopy may be an appropriate method for their particular research problem. The book helps readers quickly grasp how to apply their new knowledge of impedance spectroscopy methods to their own research problems through the use of unique features such as: Step by step instructions for setting up experiments and then analyzing the results Theoretical considerations for dealing with modeling, equivalent circuits, and equations in the complex domain Best measurement methods for particular systems and alerts to potential sources of errors Equations for the most widely used impedance models Figures depicting impedance spectra of typical materials and devices Extensive references to the scientific literature for more information on particular topics and current research This Second Edition incorporates the results of the last two decades of research on the theories and applications of impedance spectroscopy. Most notably, it includes new chapters on batteries, supercapacitors, fuel cells, and photochromic materials. A new chapter on commercially available measurement systems reflects the emergence of impedance spectroscopy as a mainstream research tool. With its balanced focus on both theory and practical problem solving, Impedance Spectroscopy: Theory, Experiment, and Applications, Second Edition serves as an excellent graduate level textbook as well as a hands on guide and reference for researchers and engineers.

abstract: For the purpose of predicting the state of charge of Lithium ion rechargeable battery accurately, we introduced the method of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy to solve the problem. The experiment data of impedance spectroscopy is comprised of an inductive arc in the high frequency region and two capacitive arcs in the low frequency region, and by which the reasonable equivalent circuit of battery was established. The component parameters obtained at several state of charge values of the battery had been analyzed by a non linear least squares fitting procedure and some electrochemical knowledge. Through researching the changing regulation of parameters with the different States of charge, the frequency of maximum of the semicircle (fmax) the phase angle o, the equivalent series capacitance (Cs) had been substantiated to be the suitable parameters for analyzing and predicting the state of charge values of the lithium ion battery.

abstract: A comprehensive review of porosity origin, microstructure peculiarities, fabrication methods, and mathematical models, as well as systematical experimental results for different porous piezoceramics with 3 0/3 3 connectivity is presented. Critical comparison of numerical FEM calculations with the results of various approximated formulas, unit cell models, and experimental data for different porous piezoceramics was carried out. Complex sets of elastic, dielectric and piezoelectric coefficients were measured by ultrasonic and impedance spectroscopy methods. Finite element modeling of effective constants of the porous piezoceramics was performed using ANSYS software package. Microstructural and physical mechanisms of losses and dispersion in porous piezoceramics, as well as technological aspects of its large scale manufacture and application in ultrasonic transducers were considered.

abstract: The fast modulation of lasers is a fundamental requirement for applications in optical communications, high resolution spectroscopy and metrology. In the terahertz frequency range, the quantum cascade laser (QCL) is a high power source with the potential for high frequency modulation. However, conventional electronic modulation is limited fundamentally by parasitic device impedance, and so alternative physical processes must be exploited to modulate the QCL gain on ultrafast timescales. Here, we demonstrate an alternative mechanism to modulate the emission from a QCL device, whereby optically generated acoustic phonon pulses are used to perturb the QCL bandstructure, enabling fast amplitude modulation that can be controlled using the QCL drive current or strain pulse amplitude, to a maximum modulation depth of 6% in our experiment. We show that this modulation can be explained using perturbation theory analysis. While the modulation rise time was limited to ~800 ps by our measurement system, theoretical considerations suggest considerably faster modulation could be possible. The typical electronic modulation of terahertz quantum cascade lasers is fundamentally limited at fast timescales by device properties. Here the authors propose and study an alternative, acoustic mechanism for modulating such THz QCLs at high speed.

abstract: Ionic liquids are of high interest for the development of safe electrolytes in modern electrochemical cells, such as batteries, supercapacitors and dye sensitised solar cells. However, electrochemical applications of ionic liquids are still hindered by the limited understanding of the interface between electrode materials and ionic liquids. In this article, we first review the state of the art in both experiment and theory. Then we illustrate some general trends by taking the interface between the extremely pure ionic liquid 1 butyl 1 methylpyrrolidinium tris(pentafluoroethyl)trifluorophosphate and an Au(111) electrode as an example. For the study of this interface, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was combined with in situ STM and in situ AFM techniques. In addition, we present new results for the temperature dependence of the interfacial capacitance and dynamics. Since the interfacial dynamics are characterised by different processes taking place on different time scales, the temperature dependence of the dynamics can only be reliably studied by recording and carefully analysing broadband capacitance spectra. Single frequency experiments may lead to artefacts in the temperature dependence of the interfacial capacitance. We demonstrate that the fast capacitive process exhibits a Vogel Fulcher Tamman temperature dependence, since its time scale is governed by the ionic conductivity of the ionic liquid. In contrast, the slower capacitive process appears to be Arrhenius activated. This suggests that the time scale of this process is determined by a temperature independent barrier, which may be related to structural reorganisations of the Au surface and/or to charge redistributions in the strongly bound innermost ion layer.
