The insertion potential is around 0.2 V vs. Li+/Li, while the deposition potential is below 0 V . Despite this, polarization caused by factors such as ohmic drop, diffusion overpotential and charge transfer overpotential is the main contributor to lithium deposition, making it a complex process.
OCV is one of the main indices to evaluate the performance of lithium ion batteries (LIBs), and the enhancement of OCV shows promise as a way to increase the energy density. Besides, the severe potential drop at the interfaces indicates high resistance there, which is one of the key factors limiting power density.
It can be seen from the porous electrode model that lithium ion diffusion path is very short within the electrode particles, resulting in generally small resistance of the battery pole pieces. Therefore, for the traditional battery structure, the potential drop usually lies in the electrolyte section.
During the charge/discharge processes, the lithium insertion and extraction can be generally described using the following reaction: (2) Li x i [cathode] + (x j − x i) Li [anode] ↔ Li x j [cathode] + [anode] where xi and xj indicate the solid solubility limits of the intercalation reaction.
The cathode, anode, and electrolyte are the most important active materials that determine the performance of a Li-ion battery. As anode materials offer a higher Li-ion storage capacity than cathodes do, the cathode material is the limiting factor in the performance of Li-ion batteries , .
In this article, we describe fundamental methods of electrochemical characterization of Li insertion materials including electrode preparation, cell assembly, and electrochemical measurement in the laboratory-scale research.
