Researchers at Dalhousie University, in collaboration with the Canadian Light Source (CLS) at the University of Saskatchewan, have developed a groundbreaking lithium-ion battery material known as a single-crystal electrode.
Over time, these cracks lead to the material’s gradual pulverisation, ultimately reducing the battery’s performance and capacity. By contrast, single-crystal electrodes demonstrated remarkable resilience. Even after prolonged use, these electrodes exhibited minimal mechanical stress and appeared nearly identical to new cells.
We therefore encourage far more research on single crystal positive electrode materials. The authors acknowledge the financial support of NSERC and Tesla Canada under the auspices of the Industrial Chairs program. Please wait… references are loading.
In commercialized LIBs, Li insertion materials that can reversibly insert and extract Li-ions coupled with electron exchange while maintaining the framework structure of the materials are used as both positive and negative electrodes.
Positive electrodes for Li-ion and lithium batteries (also termed “cathodes”) have been under intense scrutiny since the advent of the Li-ion cell in 1991. This is especially true in the past decade.
