Effect of fullerene coating on silicon thin film anodes for lithium rechargeable batteries

To improve the electrochemical performances of Si thin film anodes for lithium rechargeable batteries, fullerene thin films are prepared by plasma-assisted evaporation methods to be used as coating materials. Analyses via Raman and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy indicate that amorphous polymeric films originated from fullerene are formed on the surface of the silicon thin film. The electrochemical performance of these fullerene-coated silicon thin film as an anode material for rechargeable lithium batteries has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry, charge/discharge tests, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The fullerene-coated Si thin films demonstrated a high specific capacity of above 3,000 mAh g⁻¹ as well as good capacity retention for 40 cycles. In comparison with bare silicon anodes, the fullerene-coated silicon thin film showed superior and stable cycle performance which can be attributed to the fullerene coating layer which enhances the Li-ion kinetic property at the electrode/electrolyte interface.

Alkali-ion batteries,including lithium-ion batteries(LIBs),sodium-ion batteries(NIBs)and potassium-ion batteries(KIBs),with alloy-based anodes exhibit huge potential in high energy density due to the natural abundance,high theoretical capacity as well as suitable operating voltages.However,the practical application is severely hindered by the huge volume variation based on the alloying mechanism and inferior conductivity,especially for red phosphorus(P)and silicon(Si)anodes,which induces poor rate capability and fast capacity decay.Herein,we will briefly review fundamental advantages and challenges of alloy-based anode materials.Then,effective modification strategies of alloy-based anode materials for boosting the performance would be emphasized and discussed.Finally,we will share our perspectives and some opportunities to obtain high-performance alloy-based anode materials for further application.     

Design Strategies of Si/C Composite Anode for Lithium-Ion Batteries

Silicon-based materials that have higher theoretical specific capacity than other conventional anodes, such as carbon materials, Li₂TiO₃ materials and Sn-based materials, become a hot topic in research of lithium-ion battery (LIB). However, the low conductivity and large volume expansion of silicon-based materials hinders the commercialization of silicon-based materials. Until recent years, these issues are alleviated by the combination of carbon-based materials. In this review, the preparation of Si/C materials by different synthetic methods in the past decade is reviewed along with their respective advantages and disadvantages. In addition, Si/C materials formed by silicon and different carbon-based materials is summarized, where the influences of carbons on the electrochemical performance of silicon are emphasized.

Investigation of PZT-5H and PZT-8 type piezoelectric effect on cycling stability on Si-MWCNT containing anode materials

Silicon (Si) containing materials cannot be used in commercial lithium ion batteries due to the mechanical stress problem triggered by volume expansion during cycling. The high-volume change causes mechanical instability of Si anode materials during charging/discharging, resulting fast capacity fading. It is thought that piezoelectric materials can be a solution for the volume expansion problem because of their ability to generate electric field when pressure is applied on them. For this purpose, PZT-8 and PZT-5H type piezoelectric materials were mixed with silicon and multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) to obtain anode composites and tested electrochemically versus lithium metal. The piezoelectiric effect on the electrochemical activity of these anodes is investigated by preparing the anode composite without any piezoelectric material additive (Sample #3). At the end of the 50 charge/discharge cycles, the capacities reached 420 mAh/g, 300 mAh/g and 100 mAh/g for PZT-8-added, PZT-5H-added and no-PZT samples, respectively. These results showed that PZT addition improves capacity performance of Si-MWCNT anodes. Additionally, the obtained anode composites were characterized with X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy.     

Engineering the Distribution of Carbon in Silicon Oxide Nanospheres at the Atomic Level for Highly Stable Anodes

The application of high‐performance silicon‐based anodes, which are among the most prominent anode materials, is hampered by their poor conductivity and large volume expansion. Coupling of silicon‐based anodes with carbonaceous materials is a promising approach to address these issues. However, the distribution of carbon in reported hybrids is normally inhomogeneous and above the nanoscale, which leads to decay of coulombic efficiency during deep galvanostatic cycling. Herein, we report a porous silicon‐based nanocomposite anode derived from phenylene‐bridged mesoporous organosilicas (PBMOs) through a facile sol–gel method and subsequent pyrolysis. PBMOs show molecularly organic–inorganic hybrid character, and the resulting hybrid anode can inherit this unique structure, with carbon distributed homogeneously in the Si‐O‐Si framework at the atomic scale. This uniformly dispersed carbon network divides the silicon oxide matrix into numerous sub‐nanodomains with outstanding structural integrity and cycling stability.     

Interface Heteroatom‐doping: Emerging Solutions to Silicon‐based Anodes

Silicon‐based composites have been recognized as a promising anode material for high‐energy lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs).

In the past decades, numerous efforts have been made for surface and interface modification of Si‐based anodes. Among these, doping of active materials with heteroatoms is one promising method to endow silicon many unmatched electrochemical properties. In this review, we focus on the effects of heteroatom doping on the interfacial properties of Si‐based anodes, and some typical strategies for the interface doping are highlighted. We aim to give some reference for interfacial doping of Si‐based anodes in LIBs.

担载纳米硅的锂-碳复合微球作为锂二次电池负极

金属锂由于其极高的理论比容量(3860mAh·g~(-1),2061mAh·cm~(-3))和低的还原电势(相对于标准氢电极(SHE)为-3.04 V)等特点,成为了高能量密度锂电池负极材料的极佳选择之一。从上个世纪七十年代开始,科研工作者便开始了金属锂负极的研究,然而,由于金属锂与电解液反应严重,镀锂过程体积膨胀大,且在循环中易生成枝晶,以金属锂为负极的电池循环稳定性差,而且容易短路从而带来安全隐患。因此金属锂做为锂电池负极的商业化推广最终没有成功。在本工作中,我们在前期设计的锂-碳纳米管复合微球(Li-CNT)中引入了纳米硅颗粒制备了硅颗粒担载的锂-碳复合球(LiCNT-Si)。实验发现,纳米硅颗粒的加入不仅提高了锂-碳复合微球的载锂量(10%(质量百分含量)的硅添加量使得比容量从2000 mAh·g~(-1)提高到2600 mAh·g~(-1)),降低了锂的沉积/溶解过电势,有利于引导锂离子回到复合微球内部沉积,大大提高了材料的循环稳定性。同时,担载了纳米硅颗粒的锂-碳复合球也继承了锂-碳复合微球循环过程中体积膨胀小,不长枝晶的优点。而且添加的纳米硅颗粒还填充了Li-CNT微球中的孔隙,减少了电解液渗入复合微球内部腐蚀里面的金属锂,进一步提高了材料的库仑效率。以添加10%硅的锂碳复合材料作为负极,与商用磷酸铁锂正极组成全电池,在常规酯类电解液中1C (0.7 mA·cm~(-2))条件下能稳定循环900圈以上,库仑效率为96.7%,大大高于同样条件下测得的Li-CNT复合材料(90.1%)和金属锂片(79.3%)的库仑效率。因此,这种通过简单的熔融浸渍法即可制备的,具有高的比容量和长的循环稳定性的锂硅-碳复合材料具有较大的潜能成为高能量密度电池的负极材料,尤其适用于锂硫、锂氧这种正极不含锂源的电池体系。     

A delicately designed functional binder enabling in situ construction of 3D cross-linking robust network for high-performance Si/graphite composite anode

The silicon (Si)-based anodes suffer from large volume expansion in the lithiation process. Aiming at improving the cycling stability of a Si/graphite composite anode processed by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method, a functional aqueous binder was delicately designed and synthesized via an aqueous copolymerization of lithium acrylate and vinyl triethoxy silane (VTEO). The PAA-VTEO binder can in situ react with the silanol groups on the surface of Si nanoparticles to form a robust 3D cross-linked network. The resulting extremely high modulus and hardness of this integrated 3D network structure effectively restrained the volume expansion effect and significantly enhanced the electrochemical cycling stability of the CVD-Si@graphite composite anode. This work will provide new perspectives in designing functional binder for Si-based anodes.     

Energy Storage Materials from Nature through Nanotechnology: A Sustainable Route from Reed Plants to a Silicon Anode for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Silicon is an attractive anode material in energy storage devices, as it has a ten times higher theoretical capacity than its state‐of‐art carbonaceous counterpart. However, the common process to synthesize silicon nanostructured electrodes is complex, costly, and energy‐intensive. Three‐dimensional (3D) porous silicon‐based anode materials have been fabricated from natural reed leaves by calcination and magnesiothermic reduction. This sustainable and highly abundant silica source allows for facile production of 3D porous silicon with very good electrochemical performance. The obtained silicon anode retains the 3D hierarchical architecture of the reed leaf. Impurity leaching and gas release during the fabrication process leads to an interconnected porosity and the reductive treatment to an inside carbon coating. Such anodes show a remarkable Li‐ion storage performance: even after 4000 cycles and at a rate of 10 C, a specific capacity of 420 mA h g^?1 is achieved.
