The solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer on a silicon anode is investigated by SERS. Gold electrodeposition on a silicon electrode is confirmed by SEM, and Raman enhancement is proved, allowing determination of the partial composition of its SEI. For the first time, organophosphate-derivatives seem to be detected by Raman.
