The newly installed BL28XU beamline at SPring-8 is dedicated toin situstructural and electronic analysis of rechargeable batteries. It supports the time range (1 ms to 100 s) and spatial range (1 µm to 1 mm) needed for battery analysis. Electrochemical apparatus for battery charging and discharging are available in experimental hutches and in a preparation room. Battery analysis can be carried out efficiently and effectively using X-ray diffraction, X-ray absorption fine-structure analysis and hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Here, the design and performance of the beamline are described, and preliminary results are presented.

Research and development of rechargeable batteries is critical to meet the worldwide demand for clean and sustainable energy collection and storage. A vital part of this research is to get clear understanding of how the crystal structures of electrode materials affect the the resulting properties of the batteries. As structural changes in both the anode and cathode materials play an important role in overall battery performance, synchrotron powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), with high beam flux and resolution, is an extremely useful tool for studying the battery both in-situ and ex-situ. Several simple in-situ cell designs have been designed for synchrotron PXRD measurement. The cell is available for researchers in the field of battery research. The effectiveness and simplicity of the cell design have been demonstrated at Powder Diffraction Beamline at Australian Synchrotron for several user groups. Case studies of analysis of the lithium insertion reaction for Li0.18Sr0.66Ti0.5Nb0.5O3 defect perovskite [1], crystal structure of Li4Ti5O12–xBrx electrode material [2] and LiNi1/3Mn1/3Co1/3O2 (NMC) as a new synthesized cathode material [3] will be discussed, respectively.

Studies of the nature of a surface, either metallic or nonmetallic, in the past, have been limited to the instrumentation available for these measurements. In the past, optical microscopy, replica transmission electron microscopy, electron or X-ray diffraction and optical or X-ray spectroscopy have provided the means of surface characterization. Actually, some of these techniques are not purely surface; the depth of penetration may be a few thousands of an inch. Within the last five years, instrumentation has been made available which now makes it practical for use to study the outer few 100A of layers and characterize it completely from a chemical, physical, and crystallographic standpoint. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) provides a means of viewing the surface of a material in situ to magnifications as high as 250,000X.

AbstractAn experimental heat treatment chamber and control system were developed to perform in-situ X-ray diffraction experiments during low-pressure carburizing (LPC) processes. Results from the experimental chamber and industrial furnace were compared, and it was proven that the built system is reliable for LPC experiments. In-situ X-ray diffraction investigations during LPC treatment were conducted at the German Electron Synchrotron Facility in Hamburg Germany. During the boost steps, carbon accumulation and carbide formation was observed at the surface. These accumulation and carbide formation decelerated the further carbon diffusion from atmosphere to the sample. In the early minutes of the diffusion steps, it is observed that cementite content continue to increase although there is no presence of gas. This effect is attributed to the high carbon accumulation at the surface during boost steps which acts as a carbon supply. During quenching, martensite at higher temperature had a lower c/a ratio than later formed ones. This difference is credited to the early transformation of austenite regions having lower carbon content. Also, it was noticed that the final carbon content dissolved in martensite reduced compared to carbon in austenite before quenching. This reduction was attributed to the auto-tempering effect.
