Abstract: reciprocal space mapping after charging to 4.2 V, a negative unit cell volume change was observed, compensated by an increased mosaic spread of NMC 111 lattice planes. This structural adjustment is reversibly maintained upon discharging to 3.0 V. Based on defined epitaxial structures, the reversible mechanism of lithiation and delithiation in NMC 111 thin films is determined on a structural level, providing detailed insight into its functionality. To address structural instability in the charged state, the electrochemical performance was enhanced by cooling the NMC 111 thin films under high oxygen pressure.
