Abstract
The high-frequency region of the impedance diagram of an electrochemical cell can be deformed by the inductance of the wiring and/or by the intrinsic inductance of the measuring cell. This effect can be noticeable even in the middle frequency range in the case of low impedance systems such as electrochemical power sources. A theoretical analysis of the errors due to inductance effects is presented here, on the basis of which the admissible limiting measuring frequency can be evaluated. Topology deformations due to the effect of inductance in the case of a single-step electrochemical reaction are studied by the simulation approach. It is shown that an inductance can not only change the actual values of the parameters (electrolytic resistance, double layer capacitance, reaction resistance), but can also substantially alter the shape of the impedance diagram, this leading to erroneous structure interpretations. The effect of the size and surface area of the electrode on its intrinsic inductance is also evaluated.
