Operando Setups
Coin Cell Format
A flexible operando battery cell based on the CR2032 coin cell format offers interchangeable windows for X-rays, neutrons, and laser-based spectroscopy, enabling a wide range of in situ and operando techniques including XAS, XRD, scattering, imaging, and UV-vis. Developed and refined in the OpMetBat project, the standardized design—with lateral access and multiple geometry variants—is widely distributed across Europe and serves as a robust platform for collaborative battery research.
