Abstract:Diffusion of Li ions in thin sandwich films with copper or lead encompassing layers (obtained by ion beam sputtering deposition technique) has been studied. These metals are promising candidates for electrodes in lithium-ion batteries. It is because they exhibit an ability to store and release Li ions during charging and discharging processes. Lithium diffusion was induced in samples by thermal annealing cycles. The lithium depth profile was measured using a nondestructive neutron depth profiling technique aft… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
