Bond formation and breakage is crucial upon energy storage in lithium transition metal oxides (Li Me O 2 , = Ni, Co, Mn), i.e. the conventional cathode materials Li ion batteries. Near-edge X-ray absorption finestructure spectroscopy (NEXAFS) of L K edge performed first discharge LiNi x Co (1?x)/2 Mn ( 0.33: NCM111, 0.6: NCM622, 0.8: NCM811) combination with charge transfer multiplet (CTM) calc...

We report on the low-energy electron and fast neutron irradiated 4H-SiC studied by deep-level transient spectroscopy (DLTS) Laplace DLTS. Irradiations introduced two defects, Ec-0.4eV Ec-0.7eV. They were previously assigned to carbon interstitial (Ci) labeled as EH1/3 silicon-vacancy (VSi) S1/2, for irradiation, respectively. This work demonstrates how DLTS can be used a useful tool distinguish...
