7 Application of Mössbauer Spectroscopy to Li-Ion and Na-Ion …

atoms due to redox reactions, but also from modifications in chemical bonding and
local structure. Mössbauer spectroscopy is also of high interest for the identification and the quantitative evaluation of the lithiated or sodiated products. However,
it should be emphasized that Mössbauer spectroscopy should be combined with
other characterization tools to explore both short-range and long-range interactions,
providing more accurate and quantitative analyses.
The interpretation of Mössbauer spectra is often complex due to the existence
of a large variety of local environments in the electrochemically formed species. A
particular attention should be devoted to the Mössbauer data analysis that can take
advantages of first-principles calculations. Such calculations should also be used to
investigate the structures of the lithiated or sodiated phases that are often metastable.
This could be of high interest for the analysis of kinetic effects in Li-ion and Naion batteries, which are usually not taken into account in the interpretation of the
Mössbauer experiments. The use of synchrotron radiation could also be considered
for such phenomena in order to reduce the acquisition time of spectra.
However, in-lab Mössbauer spectroscopy will undoubtedly make novel contributions in the future to the development of new materials for electrochemical energy
storage, which will be crucial for the energy transition and the reduction of global
warming.
