Abstract :
Selected examples of application of Mössbauer spectroscopy, nuclear resonance scattering of synchrotron radiation, and neutron scattering to battery and related materials research are presented. The charms of Mössbauer spectroscopy as a technique for screening materials, for detailed structure investigations, and for in situ measurements are illustrated. New developments of nuclear resonance scattering for isotopes with 30-90 keV resonant energy are presented. Structural, diffusive and dynamic studies utilizing neutron scattering are exemplified.
