| Summary: | Thin films of lithium-nickel oxide, whose texture consists of microcrystallites with an average grain size
of 50 Å, permit highly reversible electrochemical insertion of lithium ions in Li+ conducting electrolytes.
Therefore, the corresponding materials would be of great interest for energy storage applications. In
addition, the lithium insertion/extraction reactions in the nickel-based layers are accompanied with a
marked color change, making these films of interest for the development of electrochromic displays for
the control of light transmission in windows (“smart windows”). |
