We present an improved approach to the impedance spectroscopy of conductive liquid samples using four-electrode measurements. Our method enables impedance measurements of conductive liquids down to the sub-Hertz frequencies, avoiding the electrode polarization effects that usually cripple standard impedance analysers. We have successfully tested our apparatus with aqueous solutions of potassium chloride and gelatin. The first substance has shown flat spectra from $sim$100 kHz down to sub-Hz range, while the results on gelatin clearly show the existence of two distinct low frequency conductive relaxations.

A possibility for the observation of so-called structure resonances (SR) in electrolytes arising due to relative motion of the cluster charged nucleus and its solvation shell is demonstrated. The discussed method considers the resonant contribution o f the SR to the frequency dependence of the reflection (transmission) coefficient of the electromagnetic wave interacting with the free electrolyte surface. Of special interest is the observation of SR for multiply charged particles in electrolyte providing direct information on the charge of single cluster. Also important are other not so prominent details of the wave interaction with mobile charged clusters in electrolyte related to the formation and complicated nature of the frequency dependence of the charged cluster associated mass.
The so-called excess noise limits the energy resolution of transition-edge sensor (TES) detectors, and its physical origin has been unclear, with many competing models proposed. Here we present the noise and impedance data analysis of a rectangular X -ray Ti/Au TES fabricated at SRON. To account for all the major features in the impedance and noise data simultaneously, we have used a thermal model consisting of three blocks of heat capacities, whereas a two-block model is clearly insufficient. The implication is that, for these detectors, the excess noise is simply thermal fluctuation noise of the internal parts of the device. Equations for the impedance and noise for a three-block model are also given.

Using liquid integral equation theory, we calculate the pair correlations of particles that interact via a smooth repulsive pair potential in d = 4 spatial dimensions. We discuss the performance of different closures for the Ornstein-Zernike equation , by comparing the results to computer simulation data. Our results are of relevance to understand crystal and glass formation in high-dimensional systems.
We previously reported on the complex permittivity and dc conductivity of waste-activated sludge. The measurements, spanning a frequency range of 3 MHz to 40 GHz, were made using an open-ended coaxial transmission line. Although this technique is wel l established in the literature, we found that it was necessary to combine methods from several papers to use the open-ended coaxial probe to reliably characterize biological samples having a high dc conductivity. Here, we provide a set of detailed and practical guidelines that can be used to determine the permittivity and conductivity of biological samples over a broad frequency range. Due to the electrode polarization effect, low frequency measurements of conducting samples require corrections to extract the intrinsic electrical properties. We describe one practical correction scheme and verify its reliability using a control sample.
The effects of contact-line pinning are well-known in macroscopic systems, but are only just beginning to be explored at the microscale in colloidal suspensions. We use digital holography to capture the fast three-dimensional dynamics of micrometer-s ized ellipsoids breaching an oil-water interface. We find that the particle angle varies approximately linearly with the height, in contrast to results from simulations based on minimization of the interfacial energy. Using a simple model of the motion of the contact line, we show that the observed coupling between translational and rotational degrees of freedom is likely due to contact-line pinning. We conclude that the dynamics of colloidal particles adsorbing to a liquid interface are not determined by minimization of interfacial energy and viscous dissipation alone; contact-line pinning dictates both the timescale and pathway to equilibrium.
