Supercaps provide a challenge to normal potentiostatic testing in that their response to a voltage step produces theoretically infinite current.  This causes most potentiostats to hit the current rail and stay there until the instrument comes into compliance.

Gamry has tools to work through both problems. PWR800 potentiostatic experiments (other than CV) operate in a special mode that records all current data, ensuring no fraction of the capacity is lost due to potential steps. In cyclic voltammetry, Gamry’s surface mode preserves capacitance information (as well Faradaic current from bound species), allowing it to accurately measure supercaps.

Gamry Expertise

We have tested quite a few supercapacitors at Gamry and worked with supercap researchers. If you are new to the field, or to Gamry, you may want to read through our application notes. Along with our application notes on low impedance EIS, Gamry has several supercapacitor-specific application notes available.Give us a call at 1-877-367-4267.
