Solid State Ionics - Mechanisms and Experimental Methods in Battery Research — •Ruediger-A. Eichel — Forschungszentrum Juelich, Institut fuer Energie- und Klimaforschung — RWTH Aachen, Institut fuer Physikalische Chemie

Solid-State Batteries promise safe, long-lived, high volumetric energy density and easily miniaturized (as thin films) devices for energy storage. However, because high currents generally only cross solid-solid interfaces at high transition resistances, current solid-state batteries mainly are limited to low-power densities.

In this contribution, the underlying principles of Solid-State Ionics, i.e. the foundations of charge transport and transfer in the 'bulk' and accross boundaries, are outlined together with an introduction of the most prominent experimental techniques for characterization of these phenomena and mechanisms. Furthermore, recent examples of application in the field of Solid-State Batteries are outlined.
