Introduction to Electrochemistry, Electrochemical methods and Applications
Learning objectives
This course focuses on the fundaments of electrochemistry and the application of electrochemical methods to research problems. Particular emphasis is given to the study of electrode reaction mechanisms and the interpretation of electrochemical results for experiments in an aqueous environment.
The student acquires fundamental knowledge on
- basics of thermodynamic and kinetic of the electrochemical process
- electrochemical methods: principles and interpretation
Content
- Introduction and overview of the electrode process
- Potential and Thermodynamic of cells
- Kinetics of electrode reactions
- Electrochemical experiments
- Linear sweep techniques (potentiodynamic methods)
- Introduction to Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS)
