«The key to detecting lithium plating using EPR was the construction of a test cell compatible with the requirements of EPR spectroscopy while at the same time exhibiting
good electrochemical properties,» explains lead author Dr. Johannes Wandt.
«We had the idea that the decomposition of such biomineralized carbonates into oxides might provide a novel source of metal oxides that have
significant electrochemical properties,» Gadd says.
The team investigated the electronic and

The team at Colorado State measured
the electrochemical properties of each compound in the solution phase.
Results: In an unprecedented find, a research team including scientists from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory discovered that the three electronic and
electrochemical properties having to do with the energy necessary for electrons and molecules to assemble or break apart are not always correlated.
Methods: Previously, it was thought that simple linear equations related three electronic and
electrochemical properties.
