چکیده

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 prior results from surface spectra obtained by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Effects of radiation damage and sample oxidation in the transmission electron microscopy are also reported. © 2000 American Institute of Physics. @S0003-6951~00!04428-4#

Chemical and physical erosion of carbon and metallic substrates containing lithium during low-energy deuterium ion irradiation

Lithium deposition on Grade ATJ graphite substrates and metallic substrates under low-energy D2 irradiation are compared. Transient and steady-state release rate of ejected species are measured for nonlithiated and lithiated ATJ graphite surfaces. Irradiation fluxes of order 10 cm 2 s 1 exposed samples while ejected species are monitored with a line-of-sight quadrupole mass spectrometer. For li...

Energy-dependent collision-induced dissociation of lithiated polytetrahydrofuran: effect of the size on the fragmentation properties.

The fragmentation properties of singly and doubly lithiated polytetrahydrofuran (PTHF) were studied using energy-dependent collision-induced dissociation. The product ion spectrum of [PTHF + Li](+) showed the formation of three different series corresponding to product ions with hydroxyl, aldehyde and vinyl end-groups. Interestingly, besides these series, two additional, non-lithiated product i...

Recent Progress in Graphite Intercalation Compounds for Rechargeable Metal (Li, Na, K, Al)‐Ion Batteries

Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) with higher energy density are very necessary to meet the increasing demand for devices with better performance. With the commercial success of lithiated graphite, other graphite intercalation compounds (GICs) have also been intensively reported, not only for LIBs, but also for other metal (Na, K, Al) ion batteries. In this Progress Report, we briefly review the app...

Physical erosion studies of plain and lithiated graphite

It has been observed that a thin lithium film evaporated on graphite wall tiles in tokamak fusion devices acts to improve plasma conditions. The present focus is to measure the physical erosion rate of various conditions of lithiated graphite under deuterium ion bombardment to help understand this effect. Sputter yields on untreated ATJ-graphite, pure lithium, and lithium-on-ATJ-graphite have b...
