Abstract New methods are urgently required to identify degradation and failure mechanisms in high energy density energy storage materials such as Ni-rich LiNi0.8Mn0.1Co0.1O2 cathodes (NMC811) for Li-ion batteries. Understanding and ultimately avoiding these mechanisms requires in-situ tracking of the complex electrochemical processes that occur in different parts of battery cells. Here we demonstrate a new operando spectroscopy method that enables the tracking of electrolyte chemistry, applied here for high energy density Li-ion batteries with a NMC811 cathode, during electrochemical cycling. This is achieved by embedding a novel hollow-core optical fibre probe inside the battery to monitor the evolution of electrolyte species by background-free Raman spectroscopy. Our data reveals changes in the ratio of carbonate solvents and electrolyte additives as a function of the cell voltage, as well as changes in the lithium-ion solvation dynamics. This advanced operando methodology delivers a new way to study battery degradation mechanisms, and the understanding it develops should contribute to extending the lifetime of next-generation batteries.

TiO2has large potential ability in Lithium-ion batteries due to its high energy density and safety. The main reasons that limit the performance of TiO2electrode is its low real capacity which caused by poor conductivity and other factors. Varying bulk TiO2materials to nanoscale is believed a promising method as it could increase Li insertion sites, short the ions diffusion distance and enhance the kinetics. In addition, doping heterogeneous elements or compositing other conductivity materials could enable TiO2to improve electron transfer ability. In this paper, we reviewed the electrochemical performance of some nanostructured TiO2and analyzed the merits and weaknesses. Some challenges and perspectives for future research were also discussed.
