XRD in situ cell

Reflection-mode battery cell

Top-window reflection geometry for monitoring electrode surfaces during cycling.

Function
During battery cycling, reflection / grazing incidence through the top window monitors electrode surfaces and near-surface changes.
Beam path / detection
Incident and reflected / scattered / diffracted beams use the same top window.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Specifications and configuration

Function
During battery cycling, reflection / grazing incidence through the top window monitors electrode surfaces and near-surface changes.
Beam path / detection
Incident and reflected / scattered / diffracted beams use the same top window.
Electrochemistry
Two-electrode or three-electrode (WE/CE/RE) setup; insulated leads connect to a potentiostat.
Atmosphere
Assemble in a glovebox, then seal.
Sealing / structure
Two circular flanges, six bolt holes and O-ring compression; quartz, Kapton or Be window options.
Sample mounting
Working electrode faces the window; separator, counter electrode and electrolyte sit beneath it; spacers set thickness.

Materials, windows, temperature control and interfaces are selected for the experiment. Confirm instrument compatibility and the final technical agreement.

LABORATORY PLANNING

Prepare your laboratory

Compatibility
Confirm beam geometry, cell mounting, window material, sample thickness and instrument clearance.
Utilities
Match gas, liquid, electrical and heating / cooling connections to the experiment.
Installation review
Confirm sealing, material compatibility and operating limits with the technical team.

Cell requirements depend on the selected materials, interfaces and host instrument.
