Fig. 6: Evolution of Li concentration and phases during 1C CC-CV charge.
From: Simulation of intercalation and phase transitions in nano-porous, polycrystalline agglomerates
Top row shows a dense agglomerate where concentration gradients form in the radial direction and the phase transitions follow a shrinking core behaviour. The nanoporous agglomerate in the bottom row exhibits a more homogenous lithium distribution and follows a mosaic pattern during the phase transition. Patches of each phase have been labelled for reference.
