Abstract:Tin intermetallic alloy anodes for Li-ion batteries present a route for incorporating the high capacity of tin while potentially mitigating the attendant volumetric expansion issues. While initial cycling performance of these alloy anodes is encouraging, significant capacity fade is observed as cycle number increases. In an effort to better understand the coupling of microstructural changes and electrochemical stimuli for intermetallic alloy anodes a combined electrochemical and 3D microstructural investigatio… 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.
