Imaging of sequential potential distribution changes in electrodes during charge/discharge

NIMS has succeeded for the first time in visualizing sequential changes in electrical potential distribution across a composite electrode during charge/discharge reactions in all-solid-state lithium ion batteries. This distribution was previously measureable only before and after the occurrence of charge/discharge reactions. Microscopic understanding of charge/discharge reaction mechanisms in electrodes may facilitate the design of new devices capable of improving the performance of all-solid-state lithium ion batteries.
