Toward Practical High-Voltage LiCoO2 Cathodes: Degradation, Modification, and Future Opportunities

Lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO2) remains the dominant cathode material for consumer lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) owing to its high operating voltage, compact density, and mature manufacturing compatibility. Raising the charge cutoff...

Direct recycling of spent graphite-Si/C composite anodes from commercial lithium-ion cells

The rapid deployment of silicon-carbon (Si/C) composite anodes Graphite–Si/C composite anodes are increasingly deployed in lithium-ion batteries, yet the study of their recyclability remains largely unexplored due to compositional complexity,...

Influence of Graphite Characteristics on its Electrochemical Performance in Li-ion Solid-State Batteries

Li-ion solid-state batteries (Li-SSBs) have recently emerged as safe and high energy density storage systems. Among all the negative electrode materials that have been successfully integrated into Li-SSBs, graphite still...

Mechanically heterogeneous alloy enables low-pressure silicon anodes for all-solid-state batteries

Silicon promises an ideal anode material for all-solid-state lithium-ion battery (ASSLIB) owing to its high capacity, dendrite-free behavior, and low cost. However, the high stack pressures (≥ 50 MPa) typically...

A self-supported three-dimensional lithium-silicon composite anode for high-performance lithium metal batteries

Lithium (Li) metal anode, with its ultrahigh capacity and low electrochemical potential is an ideal material for high energy density secondary battery, but the huge volume expansion and Li dendrite...
