Microstructural evolution induced by micro-cracking during fast lithiation of single-crystalline silicon
We report observations of microstructural changes in {100} and {110} oriented silicon wafers during initial lithiation under relatively high current densities. Evolution of the microstructure during lithiation was found to depend on the crystallographic orientation of the silicon wafers. In {110} silicon wafers, the phase boundary between silicon and LixSi remained flat and parallel to the surf...
متن کاملReaction Front Evolution during Electrochemical Lithiation of Crystalline Silicon Nanopillars
Silicon is one of the most promising anode materials for use in rechargeable lithium-ion batteries due to its high theoretical specific capacity of 4200 mAhg 1 and low cost. However, this high lithium storage capacity results in enormous volume expansion and contraction during electrochemical lithiation and delithiation, which can induce mechanical fracture and severe capacity fading. Recently,...
متن کاملRobustness of amorphous silicon during the initial lithiation/delithiation cycle
Recent research on the electrochemical lithiation of amorphous silicon nanoparticles shows that amorphous silicon is more fracture resistant than crystalline silicon during lithiation. Nanoparticles of amorphous silicon can be lithiated and delithiated without any fracture at all. To fully exploit the potential of using amorphous silicon as electrodes for lithium ion batteries it is important t...
متن کاملSize-dependent fracture of silicon nanoparticles during lithiation.
Lithiation of individual silicon nanoparticles was studied in real time with in situ transmission electron microscopy. A strong size dependence of fracture was discovered; that is, there exists a critical particle diameter of ∼150 nm, below which the particles neither cracked nor fractured upon first lithiation, and above which the particles initially formed surface cracks and then fractured du...
متن کاملAnisotropic swelling and fracture of silicon nanowires during lithiation.
We report direct observation of an unexpected anisotropic swelling of Si nanowires during lithiation against either a solid electrolyte with a lithium counter-electrode or a liquid electrolyte with a LiCoO(2) counter-electrode. Such anisotropic expansion is attributed to the interfacial processes of accommodating large volumetric strains at the lithiation reaction front that depend sensitively ...
