Iontronics: from fundamentals to ion-controlled devices

Electrical impedance microscopy Sidahmed Abayzeed University of Nottingham, UK

This abstract presents a novel optical technique that is capable of accurate microscopic measurements of electrical current and impedance. This technique offers a remarkable sensitivity demonstrated by detecting electrical current as low as 0.1pA on a 0.5 micrometre scale [1] . Measurements are performed using plasmonic sensors [2] that can be described as electrodes with optical readout. The poster demonstrates the ability to perform quantitative imaging of heterogenous surface capacitance at the gold-electrolyte interface. The method promises advanced capabilities in studying microscale ionic currents with wide-ranging applications in surface science, energy storage, and life science. References 1.
