Impedance spectroscopy (IS) is an effective characterization technique used to probe and distinguish charge dynamics occurring at different timescales in optoelectronic electric devices. With the rapid rise of research being conducted on perovskite solar cells (PSCs), IS has significantly contributed understanding their device performance degradation mechanisms, including metastable effects suc...

Electrical impedance tomography is a new technology giving us lung imaging that may allow lung function to be monitored at the bedside. Several applications have been studied to guide mechanical ventilation at the bedside with electrical impedance tomography. Positive end-expiratory pressure trials guided by electrical impedance tomography are relevant in terms of recruited volume or homogeneit...

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) is a powerful tool to investigate properties of materials and electrode reactions. This Primer provides guide the use EIS comparison with other electrochemical techniques. The analysis data for reduction ferricyanide in KCl supporting electrolyte used demonstrate error structure measurements, measurement process models, sensitivity evolution properti...

Ruthenium-Carbon (Ru-C) nano-composite films were prepared by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) and the effects of deposition conditions on the microstructure and electrical properies were investigated. The films consisted of agglomerated grains of 10 to 20 nm in diameter, in which Ru particles of 2.5 to 3.5 nm in diameter were dispersed in a C matrix. The C content of the films...

Waterborne Epoxy based coatings were prepared by using a water-borne epoxy resin and a suitable hardener. The formulation and optimization procedure were carried out on the bases of experimental designs by the mixture design technique in which the important paint properties are modeled by using special cubic model. The corrosion behavior of these coatings was investigated using electrochemical ...

BACKGROUND Electrical biopsy illustrates a tissue's electrical properties by electrical impedance spectroscopy. However, electrical biopsy parameters are different from conventional morphological-based examinations. The correlation between electrical biopsy and the morphological observation has not been checked. Considering the tissue responses to injury, extracellular resistance should be most...

The lithium-sulfur (Li-S) battery promises with its high theoretical capacity (1675 mA h) and energy density (2600 Wh kg) to be one of the energy storage systems of the future. However, the electrochemical processes and degradation mechanisms of the cells need further investigation to improve their capacity and safety. In this work, in-situ characterization methods were applied for the characte...

An apparatus capable of rapidly detecting changes in electrical impedance was utilized for the continuous monitoring of bacterial growth in routine urine specimens in a clinical laboratory. In a trial study, 200 clinical specimens analyzed by the electrical impedance method resulted in an average detection time of 2.5 h for 41 clinically significant specimens, whereas conventional methods for b...
