Abstract
Characteristics of Li ion batteries depend on resistance at interfaces of g el-polymer electrolyte with Li anode and with spinel cathode, respectively. Interfacial resistances are correlated to the spatial distribution of Li a nd other chemical species in vicinity of interfaces of gel-polymer with cat hode or anode. Studies of gel-polymer interfaces in Li ion battery semicell samples (Li-anode/gel-polymer and spinel LiMn2O4 cathode/gel-polymer) have been performed by proton microbeam scans over the sample cross-section. PI GE spectroscopy has been used for Li and F detection and PIXE spectroscopy for detection of S, Mn and other elements of interest. (C) 2001 Elsevier Sc ience B.V. All rights reserved.
