Optimization of electrochemical sensor for detection in microvolume
Gajdoš, Libor ; Pekárek, Jan (referee) ; Prášek, Jan (advisor)
This thesis describes optimization and modification of standard thick-film electrochemical sensor to be able to be used for detection in microvolumes. In the theoretical part, the thick film technology is described. The work is then focused on the wettability of surfaces followed by introduction to electrochemistry and electro-analytical methods. In the experimental part, screen-printing of various types of thick film pastes on ceramic substrates for determination of their wettability and the following modification of the sensors with thick-film paste and with Parylene vaporization can be found, as well as the basic electrochemical measurements in microvolume using the modified sensor. Finally the results are summarized in conclusion.

Properties electrodes materials for alcaline accumulators
Řihák, Lukáš ; Vrbický, Jiří (referee) ; Sedlaříková, Marie (advisor)
This thesis is involved in basical properties of electrode materials for alkaline accumulators. This thesis describes the possibilities of capacity stabilisation of nickel electrode to be stable for highest number of cycles. Thesis also consider modification of properties of electrode materials on the base of nickel hydroxide by using dopes (aluminum, manganese). Measuration proceeded on the thin film electrodes created by electrodeposition. Measuration of properties of electrodes proceeded by cyclic voltammetry and frequency analyzis.

Determination of the most suitable ratio of cathode materials for the lithium-sulfur battery system
Benešová, Petra ; Kazda, Tomáš (referee) ; Jaššo, Kamil (advisor)
This master's thesis deals with a topic of determination of the most suitable ratio of cathode materials for the lithium-sulfur systems. The first two chapters provide a general introduction to the topic of electrochemical energy sources and present the commonly used primary and secondary battery systems with emphasis on their characteristics and applications. The core of the theoretical part is dedicated to lithium-ion and lithium-sulfur batteries, their working principles along with the benefits or drawbacks related to the particular systems, and widely used materials. The experimental part briefly comments on determining the suitable electrode paste preparation method, the subsequent main part is focused on evaluation of electrochemical performance of cells using different ratios of cathode materials. Five samples of cathode materials were prepared, where the sulfur ratio is in range from 64 to 88 wt. %. Finally, the comparison of all prepared ratios in terms of their electrochemical properties is provided.

Influence of Al ionts in nickel hydroxide on behaviour of electrodes
Růžička, Tomáš ; Vrbický, Jiří (referee) ; Sedlaříková, Marie (advisor)
This master's thesis is concerned with the influence of aluminate ions added in various concentrations into the structure of nicel hydroxide that creates Ni-Cd accumulators positive electrode active mass basis nowadays. Nicel hydroxide occurs in two basic modifications ? and ß. Nowadays used ß modification reaches low capacity in comparison with ? modification. The disadvantage of ? modification is its instability and gradual degradation to ß modification. The aim of this diploma paper is to select the optimal amount of aluminate additives into the structure of nicel hydroxide with regard to electrochemical efficiency, stability, and degradation degree of the accumulated layer.
