The efficiency of an electrochemical power source, to a great degree, depends on the internal resistance of the system. This internal resistance includes interface resistance between current collector and active electrode mass, solid electrolyte and electrode, and other systems. The developed method and device enable non-destructive, non-contact evaluation of the interface resistance. Results enable the prediction and optimization of electrochemical power sources properties, especially their power.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
