Abstract
Renewable technologies, and in particular the electric vehicle revolution, have generated tremendous pressure for the improvement of lithium ion battery performance. To meet the increasingly high market demand, challenges include improving the energy density, extending cycle life and enhancing safety. In order to address these issues, a deep understanding of both the physical and chemical changes of battery materials under working conditions is crucial for linking degradation processes to their origins in material properties and their electrochemical signatures. In situ and operando synchrotron-based X-ray techniques provide powerful tools for battery materials research, allowing a deep understanding of structural evolution, redox processes and transport properties during cycling. In this review, in situ synchrotron-based X-ray diffraction methods are discussed in detail with an emphasis on recent advancements in improving the spatial and temporal resolution. The experimental approaches reviewed here include cell designs and materials, as well as beamline experimental setup details. Finally, future challenges and opportunities for battery technologies are discussed.

Abstract
The suitability of multication doping to stabilize the disordered Fd3̅m structure in a spinel is reported here. In this work, LiNi0.3Cu0.1Fe0.2Mn1.4O4 was synthesized via a sol-gel route at a calcination temperature of 850 °C. LiNi0.3Cu0.1Fe0.2Mn1.4O4 is evaluated as positive electrode material in a voltage range between 3.5 and 5.3 V (vs Li+/Li) with an initial specific discharge capacity of 126 mAh g-1 at a rate of C/2. This material shows good cycling stability with a capacity retention of 89% after 200 cycles and an excellent rate capability with the discharge capacity reaching 78 mAh g-1 at a rate of 20C. In operando X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements with a laboratory X-ray source between 3.5 and 5.3 V at a rate of C/10 reveal that the (de)lithiation occurs via a solid-solution mechanism where a local variation of lithium content is observed. A simplified estimation based on the in operando XRD analysis suggests that around 17-31 mAh g-1 of discharge capacity in the first cycle is used for a reductive parasitic reaction, hindering a full lithiation of the positive electrode at the end of the first discharge.

Abstract
A new setup forin situexperiments with up to eight electrochemical cells, especially battery coin cells, and the corresponding custom-madein situcells are presented. The setup is primarily optimized for synchrotron powder diffraction measurements. As a newly constructed experimental setup, thein situcoin cell holder was tested for positional errors of the cells and the reliability of the diffraction as well as electrochemical measurements. The overall performance characteristics of the sample holder are illustrated by measurements on LiMn2O4and LiNi0.35Fe0.3Mn1.35O4spinel-based positive electrode materials.
