Abstract:Microsized alloy anodes (Si, P, Sb, Sn, Bi, etc.) with high capacity, proper working potential, high tap density, and low cost are promising for breaking the energy limits of current rechargeable batteries. Nevertheless, they suffer from large volume changes during cycling processes, posing a great challenge in maintaining a thin, dense, and intact solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer. Recent progress suggests that the problematic SEI layer can be turned to advantage in maintaining the integrity of micropa… Show more
“…The reduction peak primarily arises from the formation of a solid electrolyte film, while the oxidation peak is attributed to the decomposition of a small amount of Na 2 S, with the decomposed Na 2 S being unable to efficiently regenerate. 13,14,24,38,40 Notably, the oxidation peak at 2.75 V corresponds to the voltage plateau observed in the initial charge curve (Fig. 3c).…”
Sn-based alloys have emerged as high-capacity, low-working voltage anodes for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) in recent years, but the complex synthesis processes for the highly reversible anodes have impeded their practical...

“…Silicon (Si) is one of the promising anodes for LIBs because of its high theoretical capacity, low working voltage, and abundant reserves. 165,166 However, the commercialization application of Si anode is limited by the following issues. (1) Large volume change during cycling processes leads to pulverization, electrical contact loss, and structure damage.…”

“…1–4 Conventional lithium-ion batteries, employing liquid organic electrolytes, inherently pose safety concerns due to their flammability, volatility, and susceptibility to leakage. 5–8 In response to these safety challenges, solid-state lithium batteries have emerged as a promising alternative, completely abandoning traditional organic electrolytes in favor of solid counterparts. This transformative shift not only addresses safety concerns, but also enhances performance characteristics.…”
