The observed diffusion layer thickness aligns with theoretical predictions.
Abstract
We developed an operando Raman spectroscopy method to visualize lithium deposition and diffusion at the microelectrode interface. Lithium deposition released free EC and FSA, while dissolution promoted rapid Li+ coordination. The estimated diffusion layer thickness matched theoretical predictions, highlighting micro-Raman spectroscopy's potential for studying lithium-ion battery interfaces. Operando Raman spectroscopy was developed to visualize interfacial reactions at a microelectrode, revealing environmental changes during Li deposition/dissolution and enabling analysis of dynamic battery interface processes.
