Toward fast-charging lithium-ion batteries: Quantitatively tracking lithium plating on graphite

The detection and quantification of lithium plating on graphite during fast charging are crucial for obtaining valuable insights for enhancing safety measures and precautionary strategies in lithium-ion batteries. Here, we highlight a recent study by McCloskey and colleagues that employed high-throughput cycling techniques to elucidate and quantify irreversible and reversible lithium plating on graphite in situ.
