Cell assembly for electrode structural observation

Abstract

A cell assembly for structural observation is provided which can allow X rays to effectively penetrate a cell which is the observation target in a relative wide range, and appropriately handle expansion/contraction of the cell itself. A cell assembly for structural observation for observing an internal structure of a cell by X-ray CT includes: a pair of restraining members (a first restraining member and a second restraining member) which restrain the cell serving as the observation target by sandwiching from both sides thereof, and in which one of the restraining members (the first restraining member) among the pair of restraining members has an X-ray irradiated part of relatively thinner thickness than the other restraining member (the second restraining member) formed at a site corresponding to the cell. In this mode, a displacement detection region is established in the X-ray irradiated part.
