Compton scattering imaging using high-energy synchrotron x-rays allows the visualization of the spatio-temporal lithiation state in lithium-ion batteries probed in-operando. Here, we apply this imaging technique to the commercial 18650-type cylindrical lithium-ion battery. Our analysis of the lineshapes of the Compton scattering spectra taken from different electrode layers reveals the emergence of inhomogeneous lithiation patterns during the charge-discharge cycles. Moreover, these patterns exhibit oscillations in time where the dominant period corresponds to the time scale of the charging curve.

Compton scattering is one of the promising probe to quantitate of the Li under in-operando condition, since high-energy X-rays which have high penetration power into the materials are used as incident beam and Compton scattered energy spectrum have s
pecific line-shape by the elements. We develop in-operando quantitation method of Li composition in the electrodes by using line-shape (Sparameter) analysis of Compton scattered energy spectrum. In this study, we apply S-parameter analysis to commercial coin cell Li-ion rechargeable battery and obtain the variation of S-parameters during charge/discharge cycle at positive and negative electrodes. By using calibration curves for Li composition in the electrodes, we determine the change of Li composition of positive and negative electrodes through S-parameters, simultaneously.
Non-destructive determination of lithium distribution in a working battery is key for addressing both efficiency and safety issues. Although various techniques have been developed to map the lithium distribution in electrodes, these methods are mostl
y applicable to test cells. Here we propose the use of high-energy x-ray Compton scattering spectroscopy to measure the local lithium concentration in closed electrochemical cells. A combination of experimental measurements and parallel first-principles computations is used to show that the shape parameter S of the Compton profile is linearly proportional to lithium concentration and thus provides a viable descriptor for this important quantity. The merits and applicability of our method are demonstrated with illustrative examples of LixMn2O4 cathodes and a working commercial lithium coin battery CR2032.
Strongly correlated materials that exhibit an insulator-metal transition are key candidates in the search for new computing platforms. Understanding the pathways and timescales underlying the electrically-driven insulator-metal transition is crucial
for uncovering the fundamental limits of device operation. Using stroboscopic electron diffraction, we perform synchronized time-resolved measurements of atomic motions and electronic transport in operating vanadium dioxide switches. We discover an electrically-triggered, isostructural state that forms transiently on microsecond timescales, stabilized by local heterogeneities and interfacial interactions between the equilibrium phases. This metastable phase bears striking similarity to that formed under photoexcitation within picoseconds, suggesting a universal transformation pathway across eight orders of magnitude of timescale. Our results establish a new route for uncovering non-equilibrium and metastable phases in correlated materials, and open avenues for engineering novel dynamical behavior in nanoelectronics.
In view of the long-standing controversy over the reversibility of transition metals in Sn-based alloys as anode for Li-ion batteries, an in situ real-time magnetic monitoring method was used to investigate the evolution of Sn-Co intermetallic during
the electrochemical cycling. Sn-Co alloy film anodes with different compositions were prepared via magnetron sputtering without using binders and conductive additives. The magnetic responses showed that the Co particles liberated by Li insertion recombine fully with Sn during the delithiation to reform Sn-Co intermetallic into stannum richer phases Sn7Co3. However, as the Co content increases, it can only recombine partially with Sn into cobalt richer phases Sn3Co7. The unconverted Co particles may form a dense barrier layer and prevent the full reaction of Li with all the Sn in the anode, leading to lower capacities. These critical results shed light on understanding the reaction mechanism of transition metals, and provide valuable insights toward the design of high-performance Sn alloy based anodes.
Electrochemical energy systems rely on particulate porous electrodes to store or convert energies. While the three-dimensional porous structures were introduced to maximize the interfacial area for better overall performance of the system, spatiotemp
oral heterogeneities arose from materials thermodynamics localize the charge transfer processes onto a limited portion of the available interfaces. Here, we demonstrate a simple but precision method that can directly track and analyze the operando (i.e. local and reacting) interfaces at the mesoscale in a practical graphite porous electrode to obtain the true local current density, which turned out to be two orders of magnitude higher than the globally averaged current density adopted by existing studies. Our results resolve the long-standing discrepancies between kinetics parameters derived from electroanalytical measurements and from first principles predictions. Contradictory to prevailing beliefs, the electrochemical dynamics is not controlled by the solid-state diffusion process once the spatiotemporal reaction heterogeneities emerge in porous electrodes.
