CHEM 710/7100 - Electrochemistry
Semester: Fall 2026
Professor: R. Smith | Discipline: Inorganic | Campus: WaterlooDescription
This course will introduce the fundamental concepts that underlie modern electrochemical energy conversion and storage technologies. These concepts will be used to build an understanding of common experimental techniques, such as cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and impedance spectroscopy and their application to the analysis of real-world electrochemical systems. Modern technologies for electrochemical energy conversion and storage will then be compared and contrasted through a series of literature-based case studies, with focus on the design of electrode materials and measurement of their electrochemical properties.
