Ohio State researchers use neutron depth profiling to track flow of Li atoms into and out of anode in real time

Green Car Congress

Using a neutron beam, chemists and engineers at The Ohio State University have been able to track the flow of lithium atoms into and out of an anode in real time as a Li-ion battery charged and discharged. This visualization shows the level of charge in the electrode rising and falling as the battery charges and discharges.
