Deskripsi
Rapid insertion and extraction of lithium ions from a cathode material is imperative for lithium-ion battery function. Here, the authors present evidence of inhomogeneities in charge localization, local structural distortions and polaron formation induced upon lithiation using scanning transmission X-ray microscopy.
