| contents | The intimate correlation between the local atomic arrangement and electronic states in Li-ion battery cathode materials plays a crucial role in determining their electrochemical properties, including capacity, cycling stability, and rate capability. Despite almost 30 years of research efforts on high performance cathodes based on Ni rich layered oxides, there is still no consensus on LiNiO2 local atomic and electronic structure. Ni sites could be either Jahn-Teller distorted or bond disproportionated and the role of Ni and oxygen in the charge compensation mechanism remains unclear. In this study, we compare the local and electronic structure of LiNiO2 and NaNiO2, a long-range Jahn-Teller system, using a novel approach which aims at correlating the results from bulk spectroscopy techniques, particularly under operando conditions, obtained on standard samples to ensure sample interoperability and enhance the reliability and robustness of our results. Despite being a site-selective and local technique, XAS is unable to discriminate between the proposed scenarios, as confirmed also by theoretical calculations. On the contrary, Raman spectroscopy show local structural differences between monoclinic distorted NaNiO2 and rhombohedral LiNiO2. Additionally, HAXPES confirms the presence of multiple formal oxidation states for Ni, and RIXS data provides evidence of 3d8 states, confirming the negative charge transfer character of Ni and some degree of bond disproportionation in LiNiO2. Regarding the charge compensation mechanism, XRS and RIXS support the participation of oxygen holes in the redox activity, while Raman spectroscopy does not detect molecular oxygen. By combing several high-fidelity spectroscopy datasets, this study shows the value of correlative characterization workflows to provide insights into complex structural-electrochemical relationships. |
