This book begins by introducing the basic concepts of impedance to
non-specialist readers who have only an elementary knowledge of
physics and mathematics. Mathematical concepts are explained
clearly at appropriate points in a series of Theory Notes.
Subsequent chapters cover RCL (resistor, capacitor, inductor)
circuits, with many simulated examples, before moving on to develop
key ideas relating to the application of impedance spectroscopy to
electrochemical systems. Circuit elements used to model electron
transfer, double layer capacitance and diffusion are described in
detail, along with Kramers-Kronig testing of experimental data.
After explaining how potentiostats and frequency response analysers
work, the book analyses a wealth of real-life experimental data
that have been obtained either during the annual EIS courses in
Bath or in research carried out in the laboratories of the author
and his colleagues in Bath. Topics covered include not only
conventional electrochemical systems such as the rotating disc
electrode and ultramicroelectrode but also solar cells, using data
obtained for dye-sensitized solar cells and perovskite solar cells
for illustration. The application of frequency-resolved methods in
optical spectroscopy is illustrated with results from polyaniline
electrochromic windows and hematite photoelectrodes, and finally
the last two chapters introduce techniques based on modulation of
light intensity rather than voltage or current — examples are
intensity modulated photocurrent /photovoltage spectroscopy
(IMPS/IMVS). The book concludes with worked answers for the
problems set out in earlier chapters.
