Lithiation of Tin Nanoneedles Investigated by in-situ TEM
In the search for a better anode material for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), elemental Sn has generated considerable interest due to its high theoretical specific capacity of 994 mAh/g. However, neither bulk material nor continuous films of Sn are useful in practice because the large volume change that occurs during lithiation and delithiation causes mechanical failure of the electrode [1]. Arra...
متن کاملCORRIGENDUM: Dynamics of Electrochemical Lithiation/Delithiation of Graphene-Encapsulated Silicon Nanoparticles Studied by In-situ TEM
The incorporation of nanostructured carbon has been recently reported as an effective approach to improve the cycling stability when Si is used as high-capacity anodes for the next generation Li-ion battery. However, the mechanism of such notable improvement remains unclear. Herein, we report in-situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies to directly observe the dynamic electrochemical ...
متن کاملIn Situ and Ex Situ TEM Study of Lithiation Behaviours of Porous Silicon Nanostructures
In this work, we study the lithiation behaviours of both porous silicon (Si) nanoparticles and porous Si nanowires by in situ and ex situ transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and compare them with solid Si nanoparticles and nanowires. The in situ TEM observation reveals that the critical fracture diameter of porous Si particles reaches up to 1.52 μm, which is much larger than the previously r...
متن کاملIsotropic to Anisotropic Transition Observed in Si Nanoparticles Lithiation by in situ TEM
Si is a promising candidate anode material for the next generation Li-ion battery because of its high capacity. However, Si inherently suffers from its large volume change (~300%) when alloyed with Li during the typical charge/discharge cycles, which degrades battery performance and causes potential safety issues. Understanding of microstructural evolutions of Si in the lithiation/delithiation ...
متن کاملIn situ TEM of two-phase lithiation of amorphous silicon nanospheres.
To utilize high-capacity Si anodes in next-generation Li-ion batteries, the physical and chemical transformations during the Li-Si reaction must be better understood. Here, in situ transmission electron microscopy is used to observe the lithiation/delithiation of amorphous Si nanospheres; amorphous Si is an important anode material that has been less studied than crystalline Si. Unexpectedly, t...
