Applications Of Raman Spectroscopy Technique In Lithium Ion Batteries, Liang Zhao, Yong-Sheng Hu, Hong Li, Zhao-Xiang Wang, Hong-Xing Xu, Xue-Jie Huang, Li-Quan Chen

Journal of Electrochemistry

The Raman spectroscopy has been widely used in the study of lithium ion batteries.In this short review,we gave some examples of the applications of Raman spectroscopy in the study of electrode materials including carbonaceous materials,spinel LiMxMn2-x O4,LiFePO4,as well as polymer electrolytes,room temperaturemolten salt electrolytes and the solid-electrolyte interphase layers.The advantages and disadvantages of the ex-situ and in-situ Raman spectrum techniques are discussed.Using new Raman techniques to investigate Li-ion batteries are suggested.

Preparation And Electrochemical Properties Of Sn Thin Film As Anode Materials For Lithium-Ion Batteries, Hong-Mei Bai, Zhan-Liang Tao, Fang-Yi Cheng, Jun Chen

Journal of Electrochemistry

Sn thin films as the anode materials of Li-ion batteries were prepared by vacuum-evaporation method on the copper foam substrate.The phase structure,surface morphology and electrochemical property of the as-prepared films were characterized by X-ray diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscopy(SEM),and galvanostatic cycling.The results showed that three-dimensional structure of copper foam substrate enhanced the adhesion strength between the active material and the substrate,under the same substrate temperature,the particles became bigger with the increasing of evaporation time,while their electrochemical property decreased;under the same evaporation time,the particles didn′t changed obviously with the increasing of substrate temperature,while their cycle life increased.The battery of sample A″(substrate temperature:200 ℃,evaporation …
