Lithium Insertion into Mesoscopic and Single‐Crystal TiO2 (Rutile) Electrodes
TL;DR: In this article, the authors studied the behavior of single-crystal and mesoscopic TiO{sub 2} (rutile) and showed that the insertion of lithium into rutile is accompanied by an increase of the electrode mass, while the mass/charge relations show hystereses between anodic and cathodic potential sweeps.
