We report an electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) based method to measure the doping level of conducting polymers. Using EIS the Faradaic current and the capacitive charging current can be separated without relying on any unverifiable assumptions. We demonstrate the method for three types of conducting polymer thin films that are the basis for many commercial applications (poly(3,4ethyl...

The electrochemical behavior of copper in 0.05 M HCl and 0.05 M NaCl carried out at open-circuit potential and at constant anodic potential after one hour has been investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) at 20 °C, 40 °C and 60 °C. The formation of copper chloride (CuCl) film does not protect copper from dissolution in the chloride media. The physical properties of the pa...

in this study, the effects of forming method (extrusion) and environmental factors (solution ph and temperature) on the corrosion performance of az91 magnesium alloys were investigated using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and salt spray techniques. the polarization test results of the specimens showed that simple sh...

in this work, electrochemical methods such as tafel polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) were used to study the inhibition efficiency of nettle leaves hydroalcoholic extract as a green corrosion inhibitor of api 5l carbon steel in 0.5 m h2so4 solution. the results showed that the inhibition efficiency was increased with increasing the concentration of the extract and th...

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...

The main objective of the current paper is to show that electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) could be a method for evaluating and predicting of ProTaper rotary file system clinical lifespan. This particular aspect of everyday use of the endodontic files is of great importance in each dental practice and has profound clinical implications. The method used for quantification resides in th...

We demonstrate the use of tethered bilayer lipid membranes (tBLMs) as an experimental platform for functional and structural studies of membrane associated proteins by electrochemical techniques. The reconstitution of the cholesterol-dependent cytolysin (CDC) pyolysin (PLO) from Trueperella pyogenes into tBLMs was followed in real-time by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Changes of...

Composite electrodes of polyaniline/MnO2-Multi walled carbon nanotube (PANI/MnO2-MWCNT), MnO2-MWCNT nanocomposites and MWCNT was produced by the in situ direct coating approach. The supercapacitor performance of the nanocomposites was studied by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The electrochemical properties of electrodes were also investig...

A bifunctional probe (FecNC), containing a recognition part and an electrochemical active center, was applied to electrochemical detection of GG mismatch duplexes. The preparation of gold electrodes modified by mismatch and complementatry duplexes was characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and optimized for better detection in terms of self-assembly time, hybridization ti...
