Structural evolution Electronic structure studies encourage designing rechargeable batteries consisting of low-price basic substances, notably the transition metal in the cathode material, to circumvent the use of costly elements with scarce resources, namely Co, the price of which has frequently surged up over the past years.
Importance of incorporating electronic structures, apart from chemical composition and crystal structure to design battery materials is highlighted to provide a novel insight into design of new class of materials. 1. Introduction
The electrochemical processes occurring in a battery are highly dynamic. To understand the complexities of the charge and discharge cycles, you need to be able to watch the processes in situ or to freeze the battery rapidly for ex situ analysis.
