Analysis of lithium ion distribution in electrolyzed Li1.33Ti1.67O4 by Neutron Computed Tomography
The principle and availability of Neutron Computed Tomography (NCT) were demonstrated. The technique was actually applied to visualize cross-sectional images as to lithium in electrolyzed spinel-type oxide, Li1.33Ti1.67O4. From the analysis of the lithium distribution, the electric field formed in the oxide was figured. It was suggested that the electric field is the same as that formed in metal.
