Batteries, Volume 5, Issue 3

2019 September - 14 articles

Cover Story: Electrochemical impedance spectra of batteries, fuel cells, and double-layer capacitors present overlapping resistive, capacitive, inductive, resistive-capacitive, and resistive-inductive effects. The introduced generalized distribution of relaxation times (GDRT) analysis disentangles and quantifies single processes reliably and reproducibly. View this paper.
