Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) in COMSOL®

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) is a powerful technique for analyzing the electrochemical behaviour of materials and systems. It involves the application of small-amplitude sinusoidal perturbations to the electrochemical system and measuring the resulting current response. The resulting impedance spectrum can provide valuable information about the material's electrochemical properties, including its resistance, capacitance, and other complex phenomena.

This course will introduce EIS and its applications in COMSOL Multiphysics®. Participants will learn about the theoretical background of EIS, including the basic principles of impedance and how it relates to electrochemical processes. The course will cover calculating EIS diagrams in 1D and 2D EIS in COMSOL®, including setting up simulations, analyzing results, and interpreting impedance spectra.

By the end of the course, participants will have a solid understanding of EIS and its applications in COMSOL®, enabling them to apply this powerful technique to their own research and development projects.

Topics Covered:

• A clear introduction to the what, why, and how of EIS.

• Simulation of EIS calculation in 1D system

• Simulation of EIS calculation in a 2D system

• Practical tips and tricks for effective EIS measurements.

• Tutorials on modelling and simulation in COMSOL®.

• Guidance on analyzing results and making sense of impedance spectra.

• There are notes about the theory as well.

NOTE : This course is for absolute beginners only

Prerequisites:

Participants should have a basic understanding of electrochemistry and some experience with COMSOL Multiphysics. Prior experience with EIS is not required but would be helpful.
