In Situ Measurements of Stress-Potential Coupling in Lithiated Silicon

Abstract: An analysis of the dependence of electric potential on the state of stress of a lithiated-silicon electrode is presented. Based on the Larch\'e and Cahn chemical potential for a solid solution, a thermodynamic argument is made for the existence of the stress-potential coupling in lithiated-silicon; based on the known properties of the material, the magnitude of the coupling is estimated to be ca. 60 mV/GPa in thin-film geometry. An experimental investigation is carried out on silicon thin-film electrodes in wh… Show more

“…These results imply that the Li 15 Si 4 phase may be a consequence of particle aggregation; however, the variance in threshold size among Si morphologies raises questions. In particular, the suppression of Li 15 Si 4 formation in thin films that are microns thick is startling.…”

“…Furthermore, crystalline Li 15 Si 4 has been shown to form during the lithiation of silicon when the voltage becomes less than 50 mV. 1 Acoustic emission studies and imaging techniques have indicated that this phase transition can result in high internal stresses, leading to particle fracture and cell fade.…”

“…Reproduced from [55] by permission of the Royal Society of Chemistry change surface reactivity by engineering strain (or the conjugate stress) within or among lithium intercalation compounds. Sethuraman et al investigated the stress-potential coupling in lithiated silicon through experimental measurements of changes in substrate curvature during electrochemical lithiation and delithiation [178]. They found that the strength of the coupling was on the order of 100 mV/GPa, corresponding to a major contribution to energy dissipation during charge/discharge cycles that resulted from plastic flow associated with stresses arising within the film.…”
