In Situ Observation of Single-Phase Lithium Intercalation in Sub-25-nm Nanoparticles
Abstract
Although a non-equilibrium single-phase reaction, with the absence of nucleation and growth of a second phase, is believed to be a key factor for high-rate performance of lithium-ion batteries, it is thermodynamically unfavorable and usually proceeds in electrode materials with small particle sizes (tens of nanometers). Unfortunately, the phase evolutions inside such small particles are often shrouded by the macroscopic inhomogeneous reactions of electrodes containing millions of particles, leading to intensive debate over the size-dependent microscopic reaction mechanisms. Here, we provide a generally applicable methodology based on in-situ electron diffraction study on a multi-particle system to track the lithiation pathways in individual nanoparticles, and unambiguously reveal that lithiation of anatase TiO2, previously long believed to be biphasic, converts to a single-phase reaction when the particle size is below ~25 nm. Our results imply the prevalence of such a size-dependent transition in lithiation mechanism among intercalation compounds whose lithium miscibility gaps are associated with a prominent size effect, and therefore provide important guidelines for designing high-power electrodes, especially cathodes.
