Anionic redox chemistry has enabled the design of high-capacity battery cathodes for energy storage. Here, the authors demonstrate reversible anionic redox in an archetypical lithium-rich oxide via bulk-sensitive spectroscopies, further revealing its crucial role in practically important properties.
