Potentiostats and Battery Analyzers have a critical role in evaluating how energy devices will perform. Understanding the basic design structure of instrumentation provides tools to users for informed decisions on experiments, analysis and products.
AMETEK presents here on the different core functions on how signals are generated, cells are controlled and responses are measured.
This content is presented from the perspective of a user and by the innovator of the digital potentiostat, Princeton Applied Research. Peek under the cover of the instrument that you rely on for your research and diagnostic programs. Most of the content will be general, so users of all instruments can find value. Learn the difference in your DACs and ADCs!
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Detail how potentiostats create signals, control cells and measure responses
• Decode jargon and terminology used in instrument design for users
• Explain which specifications relate to which functions
• Show how to take advantage of the capabilities of your system
• Use AMETEK’s portfolio as an example of different points in price-and-capability

Beyond Electrochemical Analysis – 2D to 4D Correlation of Microstructure and Chemistry in Li-ion Batteries
Single imaging instruments as well as correlative microscopy workflows have demonstrated some unique abilities to support LIB research beyond electrochemical analysis methods. Light microscopy delivers insights about ablation effects & phase orientations in the active material, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) reveals information about aging effects, nanometer cracks & the composition of the active material. Combining SEM with in-situ Raman spectroscopy extends the traditional SEM capabilities to organic and inorganic material identification. X-ray microscopy, furthermore, delivers 3D non-destructive imaging of full battery packs and localized high-resolution information, thus allowing the identification of regions of interest within the battery material volume. This presentation will demonstrate the application of these techniques to Li-ion battery research, including examples on anode, cathode, binder, and separator materials.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Introduction to available microscopic investigation techniques
for Li-ion battery research:
– Light Microscopy
– Scanning Electron Microscopy
– X-ray Microscopy
– Raman Spectroscopy
• Review of recent battery imaging studies in published literature
• Case studies on using correlative microscopy to characterize battery performance & failure mechanismsPresenter

Battery Selection Tutorial Course 1/3: Selecting your Cell and Cell Manufacturer(s)
After designing your product, you need to ensure the battery with which you are operating it will ensure the right performance and lifetime. When deciding this, narrowing down which chemistry (e.g. Li-ion, lithium primary, NiMH, etc.) best fits your product and which form factor are some of the first steps. Choosing a cell design (high-power vs. high-energy, for example) is another step and finally, finding the right cell manufacturer to fabricate your cells and packs. This webinar is the first in a three-part series on designing the right battery for your product. It will cover many of the key differences in chemistries, form factors, and cell designs and other best practices.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Choosing the right chemistry for your application
• Choosing the right form factor
• Choosing cell designs (e.g. high power vs. high-energy)Presenter
