Operando acoustic emission monitoring of degradation processes in lithium-ion batteries with a high-entropy oxide anode

Abstract In recent years, high-entropy oxides are receiving increasing attention for electrochemical energy-storage applications. Among them, the rocksalt (Co0.2Cu0.2Mg0.2Ni0.2Zn0.2)O (HEO) has been shown to be a promising high-capacity anode material. Because high-entropy oxides constitute a new cl...
