Optimal electrolytic chloriding of silver ink electrodes for use in electrical impedance tomography.

The electrode-electrolyte interface impedance may be simplistically modelled by an equivalent circuit comprising a resistance, RTOTAL, in series with an empirical, constant phase angle impedance, ZCPA. This pseudo-capacitance can be thought of as representing empirically the non-faradaic, double layer capacitance in the presence of specific adsorption and surface roughness effects. RTOTAL is the sum of the lead and electrolyte resistances. Depositing a thin layer of silver chloride on silver electrodes can yield improved electrical performance characteristics (potential and impedance) when used in conjunction with a chloride gel. An electrolytically deposited AgCl layer tends to have a rough surface profile thus leading to an increase in the effective interface area. This gives rise to a decrease in RTOTAL and ZCPA, both of which are desirable. Unfortunately AgCl is a relatively poor conductor. Increasing layer thickness causes RTOTAL to increase, thus adversely affecting the inter-electrode impedance at high frequencies. Electrode systems for use in electrical impedance tomography therefore require only relatively thin layers of AgCl.
