  • Publication number: 20240113282
    Abstract: Materials, methods, electrodes, and devices related to high-energy-density, long-life Li-ion batteries are provided. The lithium-ion anode material contains a porous core with silicon and optionally carbon nanotubes, and a dense shell made from lithium vanadium oxide having a disordered rocksalt structure. The lithium vanadium oxide functions as a solid-state mediator layer for the anode material and overcomes the well-known problem of significant volume increase when silicon is lithiated. The lithium vanadium oxide possesses mechanical robustness and prevents electrolyte penetration. For these reasons, the anode material forms a highly stable interface with the battery electrolyte. Experimental data is presented and discussed to demonstrate embodiments of the technology. It is shown that the silicon anode material can reversibly deliver a specific capacity higher than 2500 mA·h/g. The anode material exhibits excellent cycling stability and calendar life at room temperature as well as elevated temperature.

  • Publication number: 20220278378
    Abstract: A battery may include a first electrode, a second electrode, an electrolyte, and at least one acoustic device configured to generate acoustic streaming during a charging and/or a discharging of the battery. The charging of the battery may trigger cations from the first electrode to travel through the electrolyte and deposit on the second electrode while the discharging of the battery may trigger cations from the second electrode to travel through the electrolyte and deposit on the first electrode. The acoustic streaming may drive a mixing and/or a turbulent flow of the electrolyte, which may increase a charge rate and/or a discharge rate of the battery by increasing diffusion rate of cations and/or anions. The mixing and/or the turbulent flow may further prevent a formation of dendrites on the first electrode and/or the second electrode by at least homogenizing a distribution of the cations and/or anions in the electrolyte.
