A cell dedicated to the characterization of the electrolyte side of the Li/electrolyte interface is developed. The reflected X‐rays from the electrolyte side of the Li/electrolyte interface are measured using the developed cell. The total reflection X‐ray of the Li/electrolyte interface is successfully detected, and the critical angle is near the calculated value. In addition, the critical angle after the application of current is also in good agreement with the calculated value. Furthermore, grazing‐incidence X‐ray scattering measurements show characteristic signals that may reflect the structural change of the electrolyte, resulting from the redox reaction at the interface region. Small changes are captured in the scattering pattern of the electrolyte in the interfacial region caused by oxidation and reduction.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
