Three kinds of components are known in the insertion of Li+into electrochromic WO3(LixWO3): (i) reversible Li+, (ii) irreversible Li2WO4formation and (iii) irreversible Li+trapping. To develop LixWO3-based electrochromic devices, in situ hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HAXPES), in situ Raman spectroscopy and electrochemical measurements were performed. In situ HAXPES can quantitatively distinguish (i) reversible Li+and (iii) irreversible Li+trapping as the variation in the oxidation state of the W ion whereas the electrochemical measurements can evaluate (i) reversible Li+and the sum of (ii) irreversible Li2WO4formation and (iii) irreversible Li+trapping. Furthermore, in situ Raman spectroscopy detected the enhancement of crystallinity due to Li+insertion with high sensitivity. The combination of the in situ HAXPES and the electrochemical measurements enables the separation and quantitative evaluation of (i), (ii) and (iii). The inserted Li+conversion ratios of (i) reversible Li+, (ii) irreversible Li2WO4formation and (iii) irreversible Li+trapping to the entire inserted Li+were clarified. (i.e., 41.4 %, 50.9 %, and 7.7 %, respectively).
