Current-induced transition from particle-by-particle to concurrent intercalation in phase-separating battery electrodes

Many battery electrodes contain ensembles of nanoparticles that phase-separate on (de)intercalation. In such electrodes, the fraction of actively intercalating particles directly impacts cycle life: a vanishing population concentrates the current in a small number of particles, leading to current ho...
