Abstract

<p>Lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) have been improved to achieve higher energy density and a longer life cycle. State analysis of each element in LIBs helps to understand the reaction mechanism and causes of degradation. In order to conduct in-house state analysis of cathode materials in LIB, we have developed a new type of wavelength dispersive X-ray fluorescence spectrometer. The spectrometer simultaneously detects the X-ray spectrum from 6 keV to 8 keV without mechanical scanning. The system precisely identifies fluorescent X-rays of chemical shifts; the precision is around 0.1 eV. The spectrometer detected slight chemical shifts in some types of manganese materials with different valence. Moreover, for Li(Ni0.5Co0.2Mn0.3)O2, a typical cathode active material used in LIBs, the system successfully confirmed that the changes in the valence during the charge and discharge cycle was high for nickel, but low for cobalt.</p>
