A quantitative analysis of in situ and operando X‐ray diffraction studies allows for deeper insight into the mechanism of Li 2 S formation and consumption. A two‐step reaction process is proposed for both discharge and charge. Changing selectivity for Li 2 S formation is estimated, with solely Li 2 S being formed during the earliest step, followed by possible concurrent formation of Li 2 S 2 intermediate in the further step of discharge.
