Abstract
Change in Li depth profiles of Ti/NbO/LiPON/LMO/Ti and Ti/LMO/LiPON/NbO/Ti (NbO=Nb2O5, LiPON=Li3.3PO3.8N0.2, LMO = LiMn2O4) batteries prepared on Si substrate on one cycle of charging and discharging has been in-situ measured from both Ti/NbO and Ti/LMO sides by ERD (elastic recoil detection analysis) and RBS (Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy) techniques with 9 MeV O+4 ion beam, in order to understand Li transport between NbO to LMO. It is found that on over-charging of the Ti/NbO/LiPON/LMO/Ti battery Li charged in NbO diffuses into top Ti film, but on the Ti/LMO/ LiPON/NbO battery Li does not diffuse into bottom Ti film, but returns back to LMO, reacts with top Ti film and segregates at the Ti surface. The difference in Li transport in both batteries is discussed in terms of the difference in Fermi levels at the interfaces of LMO/Ti and NbO/Ti on the Si substrate.
