Accommodating High Transformation Strains in Battery Electrodes via the Formation of Nanoscale Intermediate Phases
Virtually all intercalation compounds exhibit significant changes in unit cell volume as the working ion concentration varies. Using synchrotron radiation powder X-ray diffraction (PXD) and pair distribution function (PDF) analysis, we discover a new strain-accommodation mechanism.

Batteries perform better without the strain
Using high-intensity X-rays to study the crystal structure of a common battery material while it charges and discharges, researchers have filled in new details about how mechanical strain hinders battery performance. These insights could help battery chemists tailor the composition of electrode materials to make better high-power batteries.

Operando studies of battery materials
To kick off the working group on “In-situ x-ray cells” at the Danish Battery Symposium 2016, Lars Fahl Lundegaard and Dorthe Bomholdt Ravnsbæk held short presentations about different in situ cells for characterization of battery materials.
