How to measure ionic conductivity of cathode with solid electrolyte?

10 March 2022 0 10K Report

How do I measure the ionic conductivity of cathode composite with solid electrolyte?

I know I need to measure it using EIS, with the cathode composite, solid electrolyte separator and Li metal as anode under fixed temperature and pressure.

Once I get the impedance results, how do I separate the ionic conductivity of cathode composite from the conductivity of the separator?

Do I need to measure the ionic conductivity of the separator first?

Thank you.
