NIBs have attracted increasing attention due to the high cost and finite abundance of lithium. Advanced in-situ synchrotron based X-ray characterization techniques are powerful tools for providing valuable information about the complicated reaction mechanisms in NIBs. Addressing these challenges in NIBs requires a fundamental understanding of the reaction mechanisms in various physical/chemical processes during NIB operation. In this research, synchrotron in-situ X-ray techniques combined with other characterization tools for battery researches are introduced.
