Research
and Markets has announced the addition of John Wiley and Sons Ltd's new
report "Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy" to their offering.
Using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in a broad range of applications
This book provides the background and training suitable for application of
impedance spectroscopy to varied applications, such as corrosion, biomedical
devices, semiconductors and solid-state devices, sensors, batteries, fuel cells,
electrochemical capacitors, dielectric measurements, coatings, electrochromic
materials, analytical chemistry, and imaging. The emphasis is on generally applicable
fundamentals rather than on detailed treatment of applications.
With numerous illustrative examples showing how these principles are applied
to common impedance problems, Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy is ideal
either for course study or for independent self-study, covering:
- Essential background, including complex variables, differential equations,
statistics, electrical circuits, electrochemistry, and instrumentation Experimental
techniques, including methods used to measure impedance and other transfer
functions
- Process models, demonstrating how deterministic models of impedance response
can be developed from physical and kinetic descriptions
- Interpretation strategies, describing methods of interpreting of impedance
data, ranging from graphical methods to complex nonlinear regression
- Error structure, providing a conceptual understanding of stochastic, bias,
and fitting errors in frequency-domain measurements
- An overview that provides a philosophy for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy
that integrates experimental observation, model development, and error analysis
This is an excellent textbook for graduate students in electrochemistry, materials
science, and chemical engineering. It's also a great self-study guide and reference
for scientists and engineers who work with electrochemistry, corrosion, and
electrochemical technology, including those in the biomedical field, and for
users and vendors of impedance-measuring instrumentation.
