Abstract
A method of optimizing a waveform of an electrical current applied to an electrode of an elecetrochemical device that includes at least two electrodes separated by an electrolyte, includes the steps of: applying an electrical current to an electrode of a device; determining a waveform of the voltage or the current of the electrical current; representing the waveform by a mathematical expressions or numbers; taking measurements of output voltage, current or power of the device associated with the application of the electrical current; and varying the shape and frequency of the wave form to optimize the output voltage, current or power of the device and thereby determine an optimized waveform of the electrical current to be applied to the electrode of the device.
