To increase the specific capacity of anodes for lithium-ion cells, advanced active materials, such as silicon, can be utilized. Silicon has an order of magnitude higher specific capacity compared to the state-of-the-art anode material graphite; therefore, it is a promising candidate to achieve this target. In this study, different types of silicon nanopowders were introduced as active material for the manufacturing of composite silicon/graphite electrodes. The materials were selected from different suppliers providing different grades of purity and different grain sizes. The slurry preparation, including binder, additives, and active material, was established using a ball milling device and coating was performed via tape casting on a thin copper current collector foil. Composite electrodes with an areal capacity of approximately 1.70 mAh/cm² were deposited. Reference electrodes without silicon were prepared in the same manner, and they showed slightly lower areal capacities. High repetition rate, ultrafast laser ablation was applied to these high-power electrodes in order to introduce line structures with a periodicity of 200 µm. The electrochemical performance of the anodes was evaluated as rate capability and operational lifetime measurements including pouch cells with NMC 622 as counter electrodes. For the silicon/graphite composite electrodes with the best performance, up to 200 full cycles at a C-rate of 1C were achieved until end of life was reached at 80% relative capacity. Additionally, electrochemical impedance spectroscopies were conducted as a function of state of health to correlate the used silicon grade with solid electrolyte interface (SEI) formation and charge transfer resistance values.

ABSTRACTTwo tin-graphite composite electrodes (27.8 % and 44.4 % tin) were evaluated for their use as high capacity anodes in rechargeable lithium ion cells. The initial charge capacities of these two electrodes were 520 mAh/g and 590 mAh/g, respectively. Cyclic voltammetry and charge-discharge cycling studies point to the alloy formation reaction between tin and lithium being the main contributing factor to the increased capacity. The capacity of these electrodes decreases with cycling but maintains considerably higher capacity than graphite electrode with same number of cycles. The development of optimized tin-graphite composite electrodes with much higher capacity than graphite electrodes looks promising.
