Y. Uchimoto et al., Changes in electronic structure by Li ion deintercalation in LiCoO2 from cobalt L-edge and oxygen K-edge XANES, J SYNCHROTR, 8, 2001, pp. 872-873
Cobalt L-edge and oxygen K-edge X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES
) investigated change in electronic structure by electrochemical lithium io
n de-intercalation in LiCoO2. The Co L-edge XANES of Li1-xCoO2 did not show
any chemical shift even at high x value. The oxygen K-edge XANES of Li1-xC
oO2 indicated that the holes compensating the lithium ion deintercalation a
re located primarily in the oxygen 2p states rather than in the Co 3d state
