Room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs) attract much attention as a new type of environmentally benign electrolytes for Li-ion batteries due to their numerous interesting physicochemical properties. Here, in this paper, Li intercalation/deintercalation in presence of the N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide (PYR14TFSI) and N-methyl-N-propylpyrrolidinium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (PYR13FSI) containing 0.3 M LiTFSI, was evaluated in a thin 100 nm layer of V2O5 deposited on Al substrate by atomic layer deposition. Potentiodynamic tests performed in LiTFSI/Pyr14TFSI show a quasi-reversible Li intercalation during 10 cycles (between 2.4 and 5 V) with an average coulombic efficiency of 99%. The capacity, calculated from the 1st cycle, is found to be 182 mAh g−1, about 19% (±2%) higher than the theoretical capacity reported for V2O5 (147 mAh g−1). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis confirms that the intercalation of more than 1 mol of Li+ per V2O5 is achieved as also the possible presence of a solid permeable interface (SPI) layer on the V2O5 surface. Likewise, the Li+ in-depth distribution on the V2O5 layer after intercalation in RTILs measured by time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry ion depth profiles, show small irreversible electrode modifications with the presence of lithium through the entire V2O5 layer with significant lithium trapping at the V2O5 layer/Al substrate interface.
