This lecture covers potential step methods under diffusion control, focusing on controlled-potential experiments using a potentiostat, current-voltage (CV) curves, Nyquist plots, and the interconversion between chemical and electrical energy for energy storage. It also delves into water-splitting thermodynamics, microbial fuel cells, batteries vs. capacitors, and the design criteria for electrolytes. Additionally, it discusses electrode performance in batteries, the selection of ions for battery design, and the characteristics of Li-ion batteries, including positive and negative electrodes, electrolyte selection, and dendrite formation.
