“…In tin oxides, this region can be attributed to reactions that form surface films, amorphous lithium oxide, and metallic tin. 4,8,11,[16][17][18][19] The region below 0.9 V can be ascribed to the formation of lithium-tin alloys. The total specific capacity of the first discharge that is observed at 0.2 V is larger for SnO 2 as compared to P-SnO 2 .…”
