equivalent circuit

Catalytic activity of LaLi0.1Co0.1Fe0.8O3−d cathode in (Li0.62K0.38)2CO3 melt. Part I. Experimental results and equivalent circuit for oxide – melt boundary

The results of the study of kinetics of oxygen reduction on the dense LaLi0.1Co0.1Fe0.8O3−d electrode in (Li0.62K0.38)2CO3 eutectic melt using coulostatic technique are reported. It was found, that the equivalent circuit that includes heterogeneous charge transfer step in series with heterogeneous chemical reaction most closely fits the kinetics of electrode processes.

Electrochemical behavior of carbon-fabric electrode materials with titanium and silver coatings

The electrochemical behavior of carbon-fabric electrodes in the pristine state and after modification with titanium (magnetron sputtering), silver (chemical precipitation) and sequential titanium/silver coatings was studied. The effect of metallic coatings on the conductivity, permittivity, and dielectric losses of model symmetric supercapacitors–fabricated using carbon-fabric electrodes, both with and without the coatings– was investigated.

Methodical maintenance impedance spectroscopy for lithium chemical power sources

The possibility of the use of impedance spectroscopy using an impulse method of step current change and recording voltage change in during time at the terminals of a cell with subsequent Fourier transform of the input signal and the response to it to assess the current state of Li-cell. It is proposed use of current pre-impulse in order to minimize the influence of passive film. It is substantiated an algorithm based on the measurements of impedance phase for determining of residual capacity.
