Microstructures of the contact surface observed by micro-focus X-ray computed tomography (CT). a Sample photograph showing the 100 mm2 electrode. CT images of the b x–z and c x–y planes; the pixel size is approximately 4 μm, and the scale bar in each image is 500 μm. Black in the CT images represents areas of X-ray transmission; the white areas are opaque to X-rays. Here, black represents mainly air, dark grey is mainly granite, and light grey is the conductive epoxy adhesive and wires
