Depth-dependent valence stratification driven by oxygen redox in lithium-rich layered oxide

Lithium-rich layered material deserves in-depth understanding because it has large capacity enabled by both cation and anion activities. Here, authors apply 3D spectro-tomography with nano resolution to reveal the multi-layer morphology and depth-dependent transition metal valence distribution associated with oxygen redox.

Anomalous metal segregation in lithium-rich material provides design rules for stable cathode in lithium-ion battery

The authors show that after cycling the model cathode material Li₂Ru_0.5Mn_0.5O₃ undergoes ruthenium segregation and even exsolution at the reconstructed oxide surface, which triggers a progressive degradation process. The insights enable new dimensions in choosing dopants for stabilized cathode surface.

Origin of additional capacities in metal oxide lithium-ion battery electrodes

Metal fluorides/oxides are promising electrodes for lithium-ion batteries, but the mechanism by which they exhibit additional reversible capacity is still not well understood. By using high-resolution solid-state NMR techniques it is shown that extra capacity in this RuO₂ system is due to the generation of LiOH and its subsequent reversible reaction with Li to form Li₂O and LiH.
