Use of Si-composite aspiration dusts production in the creation of thin-film anodes
Abstract
The present time is marked by the progress of technology related to energy storage. One of the promising priority energy storage devices is lithium-ion batteries (LIB), which have a high energy density and a low self-discharge level. To increase the charging capacity and general characteristics of LIB, researchers think about replacing one of the electrodes, in particular the anode, with more promising and cheaper materials. Of all the possible materials on the market, silicon (Si) is one of the most effective, promising, cheap, and widespread materials. In contrast to pure Si, composites based on it are becoming more widespread and are actively used as a material for LIB.
