Electrode Types

Electrode types refer to different materials and designs used to conduct electrical signals in devices like batteries, sensors, and medical equipment. Common types include metallic electrodes, which use metals like copper or silver for good conductivity, and carbon-based electrodes that are flexible and biocompatible. Some electrodes are coated with special substances to improve their performance or sensitivity. The choice depends on the application—whether it needs durability, flexibility, or specific electrical properties. Overall, electrode types are selected to optimize efficient energy transfer, signal detection, or stimulation for their intended use.
