“…Besides these, the influence of concentration polarization on the whole electrode reaction kinetics is evaluated by means of the following formula: Z normalf = R normalc normalt + σ ′ ω − 1 / 2 ( 1 − j ) Z f , R ct , σ′, and ω, respectively, represent Faradaic impedance, charge transfer resistance, Warburg coefficient values, and frequency. It shows that the turning-point frequency of 10% Ag@NiO is the largest (3.79 Hz), indicating that the mass transfer process has a lower impact on electrode kinetics and the concentration polarization is the lowest. , This is attributed to the introduction of Ag nanoparticles on the surface of NiO, which facilitates the generation of an enormous surface area and a great ratio of surface/volume; hence, the synergistic interface and doped Ag of the 10%Ag@NiO catalyst can supply more active sites and shorten lithium-ion diffusion distances, leading to low-concentration polarization during the mass transfer procedure . Therefore, the above results further confirm that 10%Ag@NiO shows a better electrocatalytic activity and the introduction of Ag + ions causes charge regulation in order to produce highly active sites, which is conducive to the fast carrier transfer for the OER and ORR to facilitate the formation and decomposition of Li 2 O 2 …”
