TI - Lithium distribution analysis in all-solid-state lithium battery using microbeam particle-induced X-ray emission and particle-induced gamma-ray emission techniques JO - International journal of PIXE VL - 27 IS - 01n02 SN - 1793-6616 CY - Singapore PB - World Scientific M1 - FZJ-2021-01759 SP - 11 - 20 PY - 2017 AB - For confirming the feasibility of micrometer scale analysis of lithium distribution in the all-solid-state lithium battery using a sulfide-based solid electrolyte, the cross-section of pellet type battery was analyzed by microbeam particle-induced X-ray emission (PIXE) and particle-induced gamma-ray emission (PIGE) measurements. A three-layered pellet-type battery (cathode: LiNbO3-coated LiCoO2+Li10GeP2S12/solid electrolyte: Li10GeP2S12/anode: TiS2+Li10GeP2S12) was prepared for the measurements. Via elemental mapping of the cross-section of the prepared battery, the difference in the yields of gamma rays from the 7Li(p,p′γ)7Li inelastic scattering (i.e., the lithium concentrations) between the composite electrodes and the solid electrolyte layer was clarified. The difference in the number of lithium ions at the composite anode/solid electrolyte interface of (Δn=0.26×10−4 mol) in the battery can be clearly detected by the microbeam PIGE technique. Therefore, lithium distribution analysis with a micrometer-scale spatial resolution is demonstrated. Further analysis of the cathode/anode composite electrodes with the different states of charge could provide important information to design a composite for high-performance all-solid-state lithium batteries.
