| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Li metal is a very attractive candidate for next-generation Li batteries because Li metal has huge capacity. In this study, electrodeposition of Li metal was analyzed by using ultra-micro-electrode technique in order to understand the electrodeposition mechanism of Li metal. Three dimensional analysis for the electrodeposited Li metal was conducted by cryogenic focused ion beam (FIB) scanning electron microscope (SEM) system. The electrodeposited Li metal from 1M LiPF6-EC:DEC(1:1) electrolyte has very dense column shape with uniform diameter. The surface layer analysis was also conducted by cryo-STEM-EELS, and LiF rich surface layer with several tens nm is formed on the electrodeposited Li metal. These analysis technique is very important to discuss the relationship between the morphological variation of electrodeposited Li metal and surface layer characteristics.
