Keyboard graph navigation: press N for concepts or E for relations; use arrow keys, Home, and End to move; Enter selects; Shift plus Enter selects and centers; plus and minus zoom; zero fits; Escape clears the selection. Use the visible viewport buttons as alternatives to dragging, wheel, and pinch gestures.
Select a concept
Select any concept, construction junction, or annotated relation by pointer, touch, search, or keyboard.
Construction junctions are diamonds. They show where multiple structures must coexist on the same carrier and satisfy compatibility conditions.
Move selected concept
Single-pointer and keyboard alternatives to dragging. Each activation moves the selected concept one step.

Authored annotation
supplies electronic interface
Authored explanation
Electrodes connect electron conduction to interfacial charge transfer or capacitive response.
How to interpret this relation type
The source is a material constituent, structural component, or underlying quantum field whose excitation realizes the target physical system or particle. The edge label and detail must distinguish composition from field excitation; neither implies a simple classical sum of parts.

Authored annotation
supplies ionic conductor
Authored explanation
An electrolyte closes the internal ionic current path and maintains electroneutral transport between electrode regions.
How to interpret this relation type
The source is a material constituent, structural component, or underlying quantum field whose excitation realizes the target physical system or particle. The edge label and detail must distinguish composition from field excitation; neither implies a simple classical sum of parts.

forms ionic conduction path
Authored explanation
Electrochemical cells require an ion-conducting medium and electronic paths while controlling mixing and junction potentials.

Authored annotation
sustained current from repeated cells
Authored explanation
The pile made chemically generated current reproducible and enabled decomposition, isolation, and quantitative study before modern interfacial theory.
How to interpret this relation type
The source experiment, observation, anomaly, or problem materially motivated the development, revision, or acceptance of the target concept. Historical influence is not logical derivation; the edge detail states the documented role and avoids retrospective origin myths.

assigned a reaction Gibbs-energy change
Authored explanation
An electrochemical cell reaction has a Gibbs-energy change related reversibly to cell potential under stated temperature, pressure, activities, electron count, and sign conventions; losses reduce operating voltage.
How to interpret this relation type
The target represents a state, property, observable, or state-dependent description associated with the source system or theory.
