Electrical data-cube (DCUBE) modes combine imaging, nanomechanics, and full electrical spectroscopy at every pixel, producing a highly reproducible, integrated 3D data set. This big-data approach delivers higher dimensional data that can be sliced along any axis or plane.
This application brief describes the use of DCUBE-TUNA mode on a battery cathode consisting of Li metal oxide, polymer binder, and conductive carbon nanoparticles. We present and analyze sample data extracted from the resultant DCUBE-TUNA data set, including 15×15 μm topography, modulus, and conductivity images.
