Insight Into the Formation of Lithium Alloys in All-Solid-State Thin Film Lithium Batteries

摘要

Solid-state thin-film batteries utilise electrode and electrolyte components which are nanometres or micrometres thick, enabling the production of novel devices with new form factors. Here, in situ X-ray diffraction is used to carry out the first study of a solid-state thin-film lithium-ion battery containing a solid-state LiPON electrolyte and Bi negative electrode. The structure-electrochemistry relationships in the Li-Bi system are revealed and details of cell construction, data collection, and data analysis is presented to guide for research.
