A mathematical model is developed to calculate the impedance response of a semiconductor electrode to a sinusoidal current perturbation under subbandgap monochromatic illumination. The model accounts explicitly for electron and hole transport as well as generation and recombination through band-to-band mechanisms and through bulk deep-level electron acceptors of specified energy. The model resu...

Model-type thin films of Gd doped and Gd/Mn co-doped ceria were investigated by means of impedance spectroscopy in a humid H2 atmosphere. A novel measurement technique for microelectrodes with interdigitating Pt current collectors was employed. This method allows a separation of the different elementary processes contributing to the electrode impedance. After annealing at 650°C in humid H2 atmo...

The bioimpedance measurements in humans have been receiving considerable attentions during the past two decades because of several advantages, such as low cost, easy application, non-invasiveness and on-line monitoring. The original bioimpedance technique was bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA). Within a decade, this technique evolved into the more advanced technique known as bioelectrical i...

This paper introduces the use of a new low-computation cost algorithm combining neural networks with Nelder–Mead simplex method to monitor variations parameters previously selected equivalent circuit calculated from Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) corresponding series battery aging experiments. These could be correlated in state over time and, therefore, identify or predict degrada...

Frequency and Temporal Identification of a Li-Polymer Battery Model Using Fractional Impedance — The modelling of high power Lithium batteries may work as a powerful tool in the sizing of batteries pack in hybrid vehicles. Moreover, this tool can be used to evaluate accurately the battery characteristics at each level of its lifetime. Until now, the model structure differs according to its end-...

We studied the behaviour of Li/Li(4)Ti(5)O(12) cells by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy to gain insight into the changes at the electrode/electrolyte interfaces during extensive cycling. A simple equivalent-circuit model is able to describe the impedance of the complete battery as a function of both state-of-charge and state-of-degradation. The formation of the solid-electrolyte interfac...

Over the last century a number of techniques have been developed which allow the measurement of the dielectric properties of biological particles in fluid suspension. The majority of these techniques are limited by the fact that they only provide an average value for the dielectric properties of a collection of particles. More recently, with the advent of microfabrication techniques and the Lab...

We investigate the influence of the adsorption phenomenon on the impedance spectroscopy measurements. The analysis is performed by assuming that the ions have the same mobility and the electrodes are perfectly blocking. We find that in the low frequency range the presence of the adsorption phenomenon is responsible for an increasing of the real part of the impedance of the cell, similar to the ...

This paper describes a pattern recognition approach aiming to estimate fuel cell duration time from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements. It consists in first extracting features from both real and imaginary parts of the impedance spectrum. A parametric model is considered in the case of the real part, whereas regression model with latent variables is used in the latter case. The...
