Capacity gain in Li-ion cells with silicon-containing electrodes
Marco-Tulio F. Rodrigues, Charles McDaniel, Stephen E. Trask +1
Silicon-containing lithium-ion batteries can exhibit capacity gain early in life, which makes forecasting future cell behavior difficult. We have observed these anomalous trends ev…
Building high-energy silicon-containing batteries using off-the-shelf materials
Marco-Tulio F. Rodrigues, Stephen E. Trask, Alison R. Dunlop +16
The technology of silicon anodes appears to be reaching maturity, with high-energy Si cells already in pilot-scale production. However, the performance of these systems can be diff…
Inactive Overhang in Silicon Anodes
Aidin I. OBrien, Stephen E. Trask, Devashish Salpekar +8
Li-ion batteries contain excess anode area to improve manufacturability and prevent Li plating. These overhang areas in graphite electrodes are active but experience decreased Li+…
Consequences of Utilizing a Redox-Active Polymeric Binder in Li-ion Batteries
Sathish Rajendran, Haoyu Liu, Stephen E. Trask +3
Development of new polymeric binders can help enable the use of silicon-rich anodes in Li-ion batteries, by providing stronger adhesion to the active material particles. The compos…
Cell-format-dependent mechanical damage in silicon anodes
Marco-Tulio F. Rodrigues, Sathish Rajendran, Stephen E. Trask +6
It is generally believed that silicon-based anodes for Li-ion batteries would benefit from stronger binders, as cyclic volume changes would not disrupt the cohesion of the composit…
Pouch cells with 15% silicon calendar-aged for 4 years
Marco-Tulio F. Rodrigues, Zhenzhen Yang, Stephen E. Trask +7
Small amounts of high-capacity silicon-based materials are already used in the anode of commercial Li-ion batteries, helping increase their energy density. Despite their remarkable…
Laboratory-based X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy on a Working Pouch Cell Battery at Industrially-Relevant Charging Rates
Evan P. Jahrman, Lisa A. Pellerin, Alexander S. Ditter +6
Li-ion battery (LIB) research has continuing importance for the entire range of applications from consumer products to vehicle electrification and grid stabilization. In many cases…
