Electrolyte reduction products form the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) on negative electrodes of lithium-ion batteries. Even though this process practically stabilizes the electrode-electrolyte interface, it results in continued…

Distributions of potential and lithium content inside lithium ion batteries highly affects their performance and durability. An increased heterogeneity of the lithium distribution is expected in thick electrodes with high energy densities…

The solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) is regarded as the most complex but the least understood constituent in secondary batteries using liquid and solid electrolytes. The nanostructures of SEIs were recently reported to be equally…

The Solid-Electrolyte Interphase, SEI, formed on a battery electrode has been a central area of research for decades. This thin, complex layer profoundly impacts the electrochemical deposition morphology and stability of the metal in…

Inactive lithium (Li) formation is the immediate cause of capacity loss and catastrophic failure of Li metal batteries. However, the chemical component and the atomic level structure of inactive Li have rarely been studied due to the lack…

The path toward Li-ion batteries with higher energy-densities will likely involve use of thin lithium metal (Li) anode (<50 $\mu$m in thickness), whose cyclability today remains limited by dendrite formation and low Coulombic efficiency.…

Solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), a thin layer that dynamically forms between active electrode and electrolyte during battery operation, critically governs the performance of rechargeable batteries1-5. An ideal SEI is expected to be…

Understanding solid liquid interfaces at high spatial and chemical resolution is crucial for advancing electrochemical energy storage technologies, yet this remains a persistent challenge due to the lack of characterisation techniques that…

Lithium ion batteries (LIB) can feature reactive anodes that operate at low potentials, such as lithium metal or silicon, passivated by solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) films. SEI is known to evolve over time as cycling proceeds. In this…

Rechargeable lithium, sodium, and aluminum metal-based batteries are among the most versatile platform for high-energy, cost effective electrochemical energy storage. Non-uniform metal deposition and dendrite formation on the negative…

Silicon is a promising anode material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries. However, the volume change and the voltage hysteresis during lithiation and delithiation are two substantial drawbacks to their lifetime and performance. We…

During the first charge-discharge cycle, silicon-based batteries show an important capacity loss because of the formation of the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) and morphological changes due to expansion-contraction sequence upon…
