主 题:lithium-ion battery SEI film growth SiO_(x)@C stress valence gradient
摘 要:Relieving the stress or strain associated with volume change is highly desirable for high-performance SiOx anodes in terms of stable solid electrolyte interphase(SEI)-film ***,a Si-valence gradient is optimized in SiOx composites to circumvent the large volume strain accompanied by lithium insertion/***_(x)@C annealed at 850℃ has a gentle Si-valence gradient along the radial direction and excellent electrochemical performances,delivering a high capacity of 506.9 mAh g^(−1) at 1.0 A g^(−1) with a high Coulombic efficiency of~99.8%over 400 *** with the theoretical prediction,the obtained results indicate that the gentle Si-valence gradient in SiO_(x)@C is useful for suppressing plastic deformation and maintaining the inner connection integrity within the SiO_(x)@C ***,a gentle Si-valence gradient is expected to form a stress gradient and affect the distribution of dangling bonds,resulting in local stress relief during the lithiation/delithiation process and enhanced Li-ion kinetic ***,the lowest interfacial stress variation ensures a stable SEI film at the interface and consequently increases cycling ***,rational design of a Si-valence gradient in SiOx can provide further insights into achieving high-performance SiOx anodes with large-scale production.
