“…In the past decades, EIS has been extensively used in the analysis of lithium battery systems, especially to predict the behavior of batteries, and to determine the factors limiting the performance of an electrode including its conductivity [75,126], charge-transfer properties [11,103,[117][118][119], properties of the passivating layer, etc. Numerous recent studies have been published on various aspects of the insertion electrodes used in lithium-ion batteries for the attempt to understand the origin of the observed capacity loss during extended cell cycling or storage [1,30,37,52,66,78,97].…”
