- (i)
- The geometrical resistance/capacitance of the bulk perovskite grains (Rg/Cg) in the high-frequency range, with the corresponding τgrains time constant;
- (ii)
- The grain boundaries resistance/capacitance (Rgb/Cgb elements corrected by CPE) [82] in the mid-frequency range with the corresponding τbounderies time constant;
- (iii)
- The accumulation/diffusion of charges at low-frequency by considering the Rct − ZW/Cdl group with the corresponding τinterfaces time constant. Rct accounts for the resistance of coupled electron/ion transport, Cdl is the capacitance associated with the charges accumulated or adsorbed at the dielectric–electrode interfaces of the opposing polarity. and the Warburg ZW complex impedance accounts for the diffusion of the electroactive species [89]. We define three-time constants for each of the RC branches in the equivalent circuit in Figure 13d, τgrains, τboundaries, and τinterfaces.
