Abstract
A high throughput combinatorial screening method and apparatus for the evaluation of electrochemical materials using a single voltage source () is disclosed wherein temperature changes arising from the application of an electrical load to a cell array () are used to evaluate the relative electrochemical efficiency of the materials comprising the array. The apparatus may include an array of electrochemical cells () that are connected to each other in parallel or in series, an electronic load () for applying a voltage or current to the electrochemical cells (), and a device (), external to the cells, for monitoring the relative temperature of each cell when the load is applied.
