   • 1993, John R. Scully, Electrochemical Impedance: Analysis and Interpretation, page 98:

     EIS was performed in order to probe the structure of the dealloyed layer, and was also used as an additional method to measure the total active surface area by measurement of the low-frequency capacitance.

     Here we develop a new approach based on large scale network metamaterials, which combine dealloyed subwavelength structures at the nanoscale with loss-less, ultra-thin dielectrics coatings.
