A Parallel Optical Screen for the Rapid Combinatorial Electrochromic Analysis of Electrochemical Materials

A high‐throughput optical screen designed to reduce costs and accelerate the screening of libraries of electroactive materials, in particular fuel‐cell electrocatalysts and battery materials, is presented. The methodology uses an electrochromic film as a counter electrode, and makes use of spatially...

Summary:A high‐throughput optical screen designed to reduce costs and accelerate the screening of libraries of electroactive materials, in particular fuel‐cell electrocatalysts and battery materials, is presented. The methodology uses an electrochromic film as a counter electrode, and makes use of spatially varying color change across this screening counter electrode as differing amounts of charge are passed across the array during a test reaction (see figure).
