“…At present, the most common preparation methods for silicon nanowires are chemical vapor deposition (CVD), [97] and other preparation methods mainly include molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), [98] laser ablation (MACE), [99] and liquid‐phase synthesis method [100] . Recently, Storan [101] and his partners used the glassware‐based solvent vapor growth (SVG) process to directly conduct the growth reaction of silicon nanowires on the carbon cloth (CC) collector (Figure 7b). Schematics and SEM images of SiNW‐coated CC, Sn‐coated CC providing sites for Si NW nucleation and uncoated CC are shown in Figure 7c.…”

Since the invention of lithium‐ion batteries as a rechargeable energy storage system, it has uncommonly promoted the development of society. It has a wide variety of applications in electronic equipment, electric automobiles, hybrid vehicles, and aerospace. As an indispensable component of lithium‐ion batteries, anode materials play an essential role in the electrochemical characteristics of lithium‐ion batteries. In this review, we described the development from lithium‐metal batteries to lithium‐ion batteries in detail on the time axis as the first step; This was followed by an introduction to several commonly used anode materials, including graphite, silicon, and transition metal oxide with discussions the charge‐discharge mechanism, challenges and corresponding strategies, and a collation of recent interesting work; Finally, three anode materials are summarized and prospected. Hopefully, this review can serve both the newcomers and the predecessors in the field.

Solid‐state battery research has gained significant attention due to their inherent safety and high energy density. Silicon anodes have been promoted for their advantageous characteristics, including high volumetric capacity, low lithiation potential, high theoretical and specific gravimetric capacity, and the absence of lethal dendritic growth. Addressing concerns such as low conductivity, pulverization, fracture, dense solid electrolyte interface layer, and low coulombic efficiency has substantially improved the use of silicon electrodes in solid‐state batteries. Researchers have explored carbon additions, solid electrolyte suitability for Si anodes, pressure optimization, and particle size effects (nano/micro) to enhance energy density. Recent studies have investigated the conductivity mechanism, stack pressure, and anode‐solid electrolyte compatibility to improve energy density. Micro‐ and nano‐sized silicon have attracted attention in carbon‐based composites due to their exceptional conductivity, uniform distribution, efficient electron migration, and diffusion channels. The development of solid‐state batteries with high energy density, safety, and extended lifespan has been a major focus. This review sheds light on significant insights and strategic approaches for researchers working on solid‐state silicon‐based systems to overcome existing challenges.
