Schematic of the transport and reaction mechanisms in the SEI during battery charging. Neutral lithium atoms form at the electrode and move to the SEI–electrolyte interface by atom diffusion and electron hopping. Then they react with electrolyte and form fresh SEI. Lithium ions migrate through the SEI.
