Physical models of ion diffusion at different interfaces are reviewed. The use of impedance spectroscopy(IS), nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR), and secondary ion mass spectrometry(SIMS) techniques are also discussed. The diffusion of ions is fundamental to the operation of lithium-ion batteries, taking place not only within the grains but also across different interfaces. Interfacial ion transport usually contributes to the majority of the resistance in lithium-ion batteries. A greater understanding of the interfacial diffusion of ions is crucial to improving battery performance.
