摘要: Rechargeable batteries are being intensively investigated in an attempt to solve the energy issues while meeting environmental demands. Even though Li-ion (LIB) with high and light weight have been commercialized within last 20 years, these devices currently require higher density, output power sustainability characteristics. The atomic behavior of Li ion that determines LIB's performance is hardly characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) owing its weak electron-scattering power. In this sense, annular bright-field (ABF) scanning TEM (STEM), which contrast has a low scaling rate number, proven be robust technique for simultaneous imaging heavy elements. s-state model, channeling along column allows intensity focusing forward direction, successfully explained theory ABF contrast. Furthermore, detector angle range, defocus-thickness dependence accelerating voltage (among other parameters) were discussed optimized conditions. ABF-STEM shown powerful capabilities resolving structure chemistry electrodes (e.g. occupation diffusion, phase transformation interface reaction), thereby providing critical insights into physical properties, battery design guidance LIB. future directions characterization LIB materials also reviewed.
