Clarification of the interaction between the electrode and the electrolyte is crucial for further improvement of the performance of lithium-ion batteries. We have investigated the structural change at the interface between the surface of a 104-oriented epitaxial thin film of LiCoO2 (LiCoO2(104)), which is one of the stable surfaces of LiCoO2, and an electrolyte prepared using a carbonate solvent (1 M LiClO4 in ethylene carbonate and dimethyl carbonate) by in situ neutron reflectivity measurements. Owing to the decomposition of the organic solvent, a new interface layer was formed after contact of LiCoO2(104) with the electrolyte. The composition and thickness of the interface layer changed during Li+ extraction/insertion. During Li+ extraction, the thickness of the interface layer increased and the addition of an inorganic species is suggested. The thickness of the interface layer decreased during Li+ insertion. We discuss the relationship between battery performance and the dynamic behavior at the interface.
