“…Alternatively, the observed improvement of kinetics could also relate to a change in interfacial species that may fascilitate, e. g., electrolyte stripping. [76] As such, the increased surface site density may refer to either a larger active surface area, faster kinetics at the same surface sites, or most likely a combination of both. Again, additional experiments like depth profiling, [77] spatial resistivity mapping, [78] or imaging of the SEI [11,79,80] could help to identify the underlying reason for this parameter change by providing a better understanding of SEI structure and composition.…”
