title: In situ observation of the sodiation process in CuO nanowires.
abstract: In situ transmission electron microscopy was used to observe the dynamic evolution of the morphology and phase transformations in CuO nanowires during the process of sodiation. Our results facilitate a fundamental understanding of the sodiation mechanism in CuO nanostructures used as electrode materials in sodium ion batteries.
