Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy is a measurement in which a small sinusoidal perturbation is applied to an electrochemical cell over a range of frequencies and the complex ratio of the voltage response to the current is recorded, so that processes with different time constants appear at different frequencies. In a battery this separates charge transfer, double-layer charging, solid-state diffusion and contact resistance, which is why the technique is a standard way to follow what happens inside a working lithium cell [1]. Turning a spectrum into numbers still requires a model, and combining a physics-based model with the measurement is how state of health is usually estimated [2]. The measurement itself is sensitive to how it is designed, and a statistical design of experiments has been used to quantify which factors dominate the spectrum of a nickel-rich cell [3]. Whether the full frequency sweep is necessary is an open question, and alternatives based on direct current have been compared against it [4]. Shortening the measurement without losing information is an active concern, addressed through excitation signal design [5].
