Electron energy-loss spectrometry on lithiated graphite
Transmission electron energy-loss spectrometry was used to investigate the electronic states of metallic Li and LiC6, which is the Li-intercalated graphite used in Li-ion batteries. The Li K edges of metallic Li and LiC6 were nearly identical, and the C K edges were only weakly affected by the presence of Li. These results suggest only a small charge transfer from Li to C in LiC6, contrary to p...
متن کاملElectron–phonon scattering in molecular electronics: from inelastic electron tunnelling spectroscopy to heating effects
In this paper, we investigate dissipation in molecular electronic devices. Dissipation is a crucial quantity which determines the stability and heating of the junction. Moreover, several experimental techniques which use inelastically scattered electrons as probes to investigate the geometry in the junction are becoming fundamental in the field. In order to describe such physical effects, a non...
متن کاملElectron energy-loss spectroscopy in the TEM
Electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) is an analytical technique that measures the change in kinetic energy of electrons after they have interacted with a specimen. When carried out in a modern transmission electron microscope, EELS is capable of giving structural and chemical information about a solid, with a spatial resolution down to the atomic level in favourable cases. The energy resolu...
متن کاملPhonon linewidths and electron-phonon coupling in graphite and nanotubes
We show that electron-phonon coupling EPC is the major source of broadening for the Raman G and G− peaks in graphite and metallic nanotubes. This allows us to directly measure the optical-phonon EPCs from the G and G− linewidths. The experimental EPCs compare extremely well with those from the density functional theory. We show that the EPC explains the difference in the Raman spectra of metall...
متن کاملFundamentals of electron energy-loss spectroscopy
Electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) is an analytical technique that is based on inelastic scattering of fast electrons in a thin specimen. In a transmission electron microscope (TEM) it can provide structural and chemical information about a specimen, even down to atomic resolution. This review provides an overview of the physical basis and new developments and applications of EELS in scan...
