El Cell Fixture Assembly

This video describes the assembly of an El-Cell three electrode test fixture, specifically for my project with Lithium ion Batteries. This was created very impromptu.

Hello Jimjams,
Most of the SEM work performed in my research was for visual inspection of the materials, and did not get to any visual processing or videos of lithiation. Electrodes examined after coming into contact with my LiPF6 electrolyte were either dried under vacuum, or if needed, with several milliliters of Ethanol and let dry. I then proceed to image them.
Thanks for the question.

Hi Steven, great video!
I've read the papers that you've associated with this video - they're very interesting, thank you. I had a quick question about how you transferred the electrode samples to the SEM for processing. You mentioned they were exposed to the air? How did you achieve this considering they'd come into contact with the LiPF6 electrolyte?
Did you clean them/dry them out etc.?
Thanks!
