Abstract:To realize high specific capacity Li-metal batteries, a protection layer for the Li-metal anode is needed. We are carrying out combinatorial screening of Li-alloy thin films as the protection layer which can undergo significant lithiation with minimum change in volume and crystal structure. Here, we have fabricated lithium-free binary alloy thin film composition spreads of Co 1−x Sn x on Cu layers on Si substrates. The crystallinity of the thin films was tuned by varying the deposition temperature followed by … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
