Electrochemical Intercalation In the electrochemical lithiation process, layered Group-6 TMDs bulk materials coated on copper act as the cathode, while lithium foil serves as the anode. A Li-salt (typically LiPF6) dissolved in a carbonate solvent is used as an electrolyte. The electrochemical lithiation is performed using galvanostatic discharge at a low current (usually 0.05 mA).

1. Introduction In the semiconductor FAB (fabrication) process, wafers are produced through about 600 steps, and each chip is inspected through the EDS (Electrical Die Sorting) step to see if it satisfies the specification of electrical characteristics. The EDS step typically consists of around 3000 test items. Each test item individually tests each chip and yields a chip-level continuous value as the test result.
