What is new in EC-Lab® V10.1


NEW FEATURES

  • New USB drivers for Windows 32 and 64 bits operating systems have been installed. Our software package is now fully compatible with Windows 7.
  • The new hardware option for SP-300 instrument: ±4A/(-4;+14)V booster kit, is now supported.
  • A new application folder “Photovoltaic/fuel cells” has been created, which includes 5 techniques: constant current, constant voltage, constant power, constant load and I-V characterization.

Photovoltaic applications

  • The counter electrode potential Ece is now recorded for EIS techniques

  • WE vs. CE potential is calculated in EIS measurements while Ece is being recorded.
  • Stack measurements are possible both in AC and DC modes. All the techniques are available in this configuration. The graphic package is automatically configured for this kind of measurements with 2 graphs showing the master channel (full stack) and slaves separately.

•	Stack measurements are possible both in AC and DC modes

  • New battery applications have been added to the software.
    • GCPL6 with voltage control between WE and CE (for VMP3 devices)
    • Galvano Profile Importation (GPI) including text file importation.
    • Potentio Profile Importation (PPI) including text file importation.
    • Resistance Profile Importation (RPI) ) including text file importation.
    • Power Urban Profile Importation (PWPI) ) including text file importation.
  • The profile importation techniques offer many sequences with restricted parameters that can be linked to create urban profile simulations.

urban profile simulations

  • Controlling external devices is now easier with dedicated techniques for temperature control, rotating speed control or any other devices that can be controlled through the analog voltage output.
  • New technique: Current Interrupt (CI) for IR determination
  • New technique in the Technique Builder: Pause
  • New technique in the Technique Builder: Temperature Control (TC)
  • New technique in the Technique Builder: Rotating Disk Electrode Control (RDEC)
  • New technique in the Technique Builder: External Device Control (EDC)
  • Simplification of the Wait technique: the external device control has been removed
  • With the new version you can also now:
    • Add the WE to ground connection mode for the SP-200/300 instruments
    • Allow 1 µV control resolution for SP-200/300 instruments
    • Add E range selection in the OCV technique
    • Add sequences to the LASV technique
    • Virtual Potentiostat: In the “Virtual Potentiostat” mode the user can define external amplifiers connected to the channel boards

NEW ANALYSIS TOOLS

  • CV Sim

CVSIM is a new analysis tool for cyclic voltammetry curves: CV simulation of (E), (EE) ... (EEEEE) mechanisms with or without ohmic drop, double layer capacity and two different electrode geometries: linear or circular. One tab of the CVSim window is dedicated to mechanism selection and the second one to the setup of parameters

An additional option offers a library of examples. The user can add his example at his convenience.
