Theoretical approaches to study degradation in Li-ion battery cathodes: Crucial role of exchange and correlation

Abstract:Li-ion batteries have become essential in energy storage, with demand rising steadily. Cathodes, crucial for determining capacity and voltage, face challenges like degradation in the form of thermal runaway and battery failure. Understanding these degradation phenomena is vital for developing mitigation strategies. Experimental techniques such as XAS, XPS, PES, UV–Vis, RIXS, NMR, and OEMS are commonly used, but theoretical modelling, particularly atomistic modelling with density-functional theory (DFT), provid… Show more
