Abstract

Admittance Spectroscopy is a very powerful technique for determining dielectrical properties of a given material. It can be applied in a variety of different scientific fields and the material under study may be a solid or a liquid. The technique has not only been used for measuring fundamental properties but also for monitoring purposes, e.g. electrolytical processes in batteries [1], fouling phenomena of proteins [2], thin film growth [3] and for biosensor applications [4–6].
