TLDR
In this article, the results of x-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy were used to investigate the chemical diffusion coefficient of Li, with film composition and Li content, and showed that inserted electrons do not produce luminous electrochromism.
Abstract
Films of Ti dioxide, mixed Ti–Ce oxide, and Ce dioxide were produced by reactive dc magnetron sputtering. Electrochemical lithiation was probed by chronopotentiometry, cyclic voltammetry together with optical transmittance recording, and impedance spectroscopy. Evidence was found for inserted electrons being accommodated in Ce 4f states; this contention was supported by preliminary results from x-ray absorption fine-structure spectroscopy. These electrons do not produce luminous electrochromism. The variation of the chemical diffusion coefficient of Li, with film composition and Li content, was also studied.
