Deskripsi

Defect and structural evolution are critical in determining the stability of battery materials. Here, the authors use high-energy Kr ion irradiation to induce rapid defect and study structural evolution in Li- and Na-layered cathodes to find that Li-layered cathodes are more resilient under irradiation.
