U Maryland team devises new method to stabilize high-capacity Si anodes for Li-ion batteries: interfacial oxygen

Green Car Congress

High-capacity electrode materials are inherently accompanied by large volume changes that pose a significant, multifaceted challenge to their functions in rechargeable batteries. 10 times that of graphite anodes used in lithium ion batteries. ozone enable uniform nucleation of Si on CNTs. However, the large volume change (?270%)
