A closer look : Solid‐state 7 Li and 17 O NMR spectroscopy is a valuable tool in the characterization of products formed in the lithium–oxygen battery, a necessary step in the development of a viable cell. Since lithium peroxide, the desired discharge product, has a unique 17 O NMR signature, it can be clearly identified.
