High-Columbic-Efficiency Lithium Battery Based on Silicon Particle Materials
نویسندگان
چکیده
Micro-sized polycrystalline silicon particles were used as anode materials of lithium-ion battery. The columbic efficiency of the first cycle reached a relatively high value of 91.8 % after prelithiation and increased to 99 % in the second cycle. Furthermore, columbic efficiency remained above 99 % for up to 280+ cycles. The excellent performances of the batteries were the results of the use of a proper binder to protect the electrode from cracking and the application of a suitable conductive agent to provide an efficient conductive channel. The good performance was also significantly attributed to the electrolyte in the packaging process.

Introduction: Li metal is an ideal anode material due to its low density (0.534 g cm -3 ), the lowest negative electrochemical potential (-3.040 V vs. standard hydrogen electrode) and extremely high theoretical special capacity (3860 mAh g -1 ), which is ten times as high as that of carbonaceous materials. However, several seemingly insurmountable barriers, including limited Columbic efficiency...
