X-ray inspection for cylindrical lithium-ion batteries X-ray inspection for prismatic/pouch lithium-ion batteries (winding type) X-ray inspection for prismatic/pouch lithium-ion batteries (stacking type) As the causes of LiB failures gradually become clearer, there is a growing demand to inspect more complex structures and find minute defects.
The ability to measure the impedance of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) during charge–discharge is critical for their further development. The widespread adoption of electric vehicles, personal computers, and smartphones is increasing the demand for high-power-density LIBs.
For example, EIS technique along with postmortem analysis of the interfaces of electrode/electrolyte sandwich using scanning electron microscopy reveals more information about the uniform deposition of lithium on the anode, SEI layer formation on the anode and the CEI interface layer at the cathode.
The anode/electrolyte interface is the most studied part of the Li-ion batteries since this interface determines the performance and life cycle of the batteries.
The anode and cathode electrodes play a crucial role in temporarily binding and releasing lithium ions, and their chemical characteristics and compositions significantly impact the properties of a lithium-ion cell, including energy density and capacity, among others.
Discharge and charge reactions at the positive electrode correspond to the intercalation and deintercalation of Li + ions, respectively. A large Rct during the discharging process means that the Li + intercalation resistance is greater than the deintercalation resistance. Moreover, the hysteresis increased with increasing C-rate.
