研究目的
Investigating the influence of electrodes on the space charge distribution in solid polymer electrolytes.
研究成果
The methodology developed allows for the detection of local charge oscillations and packets in solid electrolytes, showing significant influence from electrode distance. Charge oscillations are stronger with smaller electrode distances, and in biased conditions, larger charge packets are observed with smaller distances. This phenomenon is newly observed and not fully understood, indicating a need for further research and simulation models.
研究不足
The study is limited by the noise in surface potential data, requiring sophisticated smoothing techniques. The effect of atmospheric water on measurements is minimized but not entirely eliminated. The understanding of charge oscillations and packets is not yet complete.
1:Experimental Design and Method Selection:
The study uses aluminum-poly(ethylene oxide)-aluminum sample structures with varying distances between electrodes to investigate space charge distribution under biased and unbiased conditions. The charge distribution is extracted from surface potential measurements using Kelvin Probe Force Microscopy (KPFM) and a statistical smoothing-derivative algorithm.
2:Sample Selection and Data Sources:
Samples are prepared by spin coating a thin film of PEO on a highly resistive glass substrate, followed by evaporation of Al electrodes through a shadow mask.
3:List of Experimental Equipment and Materials:
A Veeco Innova AFM setup for KPFM measurements, a conductive Platinum-Iridium coated tip from Brucker, and PEO from SIGMA-ALDRICH.
4:Experimental Procedures and Operational Workflow:
Surface potential measurements are conducted along a line between two Al electrodes under varying conditions. The data is processed using a smoothing-derivative algorithm to extract space charge distribution.
5:Data Analysis Methods:
The space charge distribution is calculated from the surface potential data using the Poisson equation, with a statistical smoothing-derivative algorithm to handle noise.
