Problems solved by technology

[0004] At present, the uniformity of element doping is generally characterized by testing the energy spectrum of the element, but this method is only limited to the surface layer of the particle, and the resolution is low. For some elements with similar energy, the distribution uniformity of an element cannot be accurately judged.
In addition, photoelectron energy spectroscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy are useful for the identification of element types and distribution uniformity of hundreds of nanometers on the surface, but they are slightly insufficient in the characterization of bulk element uniformity

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of a sample for characterizing element uniformity of a positive electrode material, which comprises the following steps of: step 1, preparing the positive electrode material, and preparing a positive electrode plate; step 2, cutting the positive pole piece to form a cutting section; and step 3, testing the cutting section.
