Galvanostatic intermittent titration technique

The galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) has been first proposed by Weppner and Huggins in 1977 [22], This method is of particular interest for the measurement of ion transport properties in solid intercalation electrodes, used in lithium-ion batteries, for instance [18]. The determination of the diffusion constants relies on Fick s law. The GITT method records the transient potential response of a system to a perturbation signal a current step (/s) is applied for a set time xs, and the change of the potential (E) versus time (0 is recorded (Figure 1.11) [18,22],...

A general view ofthe mechanisms and kinetics of the doping processes (using EIS), and a quantitative evaluation of the chemical diffusion coefficients of electronic and ionic charge carriers with the use of small-amplitude techniques (often called potentiostatic and galvanostatic intermittent titration techniques PITT and GITT, respectively [29]). 

The experiment was also made under galvanostatic conditions. This is called the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT).

ABSTRACT Synthesis of nanostructured LiCoOj and TiO via microwave assisted and conventional hydrothermal methods, respectively, is presented. The physical properties of the resulting material are characterised via X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. Cyclic voltammetry and Galvanostatic Intermittent Titration Technique are used to study differences of the electrochemical properties compared to bulk material.

FIGURE 9.19. Schematic representation of the galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GUT). During galvanostatic current pulses, the transient voltage E( is observed as a function of time t and analyzed to evaluate the chemical diffusion coefficient D. The steady-state equilibrium voltage is studied as a function of the composition (y).
