Stanford, SLAC team cages silicon microparticles in graphene for stable, high-energy anode for Li-ion batteries

Green Car Congress

The graphene cage acts as a mechanically strong and flexible buffer during deep cycling, allowing the silicon microparticles to expand and fracture within the cage while retaining electrical connectivity on both the particle and electrode level. The cage is outlined in black, and the particle in red. (Y.
