Abstract Confocal Raman spectra of a lithium–sulfur battery electrolyte can be recorded operando in a depth‐of‐discharge resolved manner by using a specifically developed in situ electrochemical cell with a realistic electrolyte/sulfur loading ratio. The evolution of various unambiguously identified polysulfides was monitored during a whole electrochemical cycle by combining Raman spectroscopy data and DFT simulations.
