Conclusion• Non-monotonic transient currents do not necessary indicate
the nucleation-and-growth mechasnim; it could simply be a result of population dynamics
• Statistical effects (population dynamics) must be considered in interpreting experimental results of porous electrodes.
• Generalized activation rate captures the random activation process, and is a indicator for whether the reaction is homogenous
• Reaction rate must be decoupled from the activation rate, which is not possible for the KJMA equation
• This simple model could be improved with transport effects and particle size distributions
