This book presents a balance of theoretical considerations andpractical problem solving of electrochemical impedancespectroscopy. This book incorporates the results of the last twodecades of research on the theories and applications of impedancespectroscopy, including more detailed reviews of the impedancemethods applications in industrial colloids, biomedical sensors anddevices, and supercapacitive polymeric films. The book covers allof the topics needed to help readers quickly grasp how to applytheir knowledge of impedance spectroscopy methods to their ownresearch problems. It also helps the reader identify whetherimpedance spectroscopy may be an appropriate method for theirparticular research problem. This includes understanding how tocorrectly make impedance measurements, interpret the results,compare results with expected previously published results formsimilar chemical systems, and use correct mathematical formulas toverify the accuracy of the data.
Unique features of the book include theoretical considerationsfor dealing with modeling, equivalent circuits, and equations inthe complex domain, review of impedance instrumentation, bestmeasurement methods for particular systems and alerts to potentialsources of errors, equations and circuit diagrams for the mostwidely used impedance models and applications, figures depictingimpedance spectra of typical materials and devices, extensivereferences to the scientific literature for more information onparticular topics and current research, and a review of relatedtechniques and impedance spectroscopy modifications.
