For the reasons outlined in section 2.5, however, such data is not available. There- fore, the value of the impedance spectra is limited and they cannot be used for model calibration below. 3.2.5 Charge/discharge profiles The typical shape of a galvanostatic charge/discharge profile was already explained above. In the following, the evolution of such profiles over several cycles is analyzed. To this end, the first ten cycles of a Li/S cell are plotted as a continuous line in Fig. 3.20. The cell is activated at 3.4 V as discussed in section 3.2.3. Notably, almost half of its capacity is extracted during the constant voltage phase, emphasizing both the need for and the effectivity of the constant-voltage step. After activation, cycling is performed at a C/10 rate. Here, it is interesting to note that – despite a little degradation during each cycle – the plot collectively “drifts” to the left. 3.5 3 2.5 2 1.5 1 Figure 3.20: Activation and first ten cycles plotted continuously against the total ca- pacity. Activation at C/50 (charge) and C/20 (discharge). Subsequent cycles at C/10 (charge and discharge). The experiment starts with a fully discharged cell, i.e. at capacity = 0. Labels indicate the cycle index. While the reasons for this “drift” are not clear, two reasonable explanations can be proposed: First, additional Li2S could be activated during each cycle. While not all of the theoretical capacity is made available in the activation step, this does not necessar- ily mean that all of the remaining Li2S is completely inaccessible. Instead, the material may be released slowly during subsequent cycles, for example from the bulk of very large particles or agglomerates. This effect happens predominantly during the first 50 act. 9...1 loading: 0.99 mg/cm2 composition: 80 % Li2 S (coated), 10 % carbon, 10 % SBR 50 % Pyr14 TFSI, 50 % DOL/DME + 1 M LiTFSI, 0.5 M LiNO3 9...1 act. 0 200 400 600 Capacity / Ah/kgS 59 Cell voltage / V
