- Abstract
- Silicon (Si) anodes have long been recognized to significantly improve the energy density and fast-charging capability of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, the implementation of these anodes in commercial LIB cells has progressed incrementally due to the immense volume change of Si across its full state-of-charge (SOC) range. Here, we report an anode-tailored full-cell design (ATFD), which incorporates micrometer-sized silicon (μ-Si) alone, for operation over a limited, prespecified SOC range identified as 30-70%. This range allows homogeneous (de)lithiation throughout the electrode, accompanied by an acceptable level of volume change. The ATFD-based cell exhibits 21.3% higher gravimetric energy density than that of its graphite-based counterpart in a commercial 18650 cylindrical cell and 84.6% capacity retention after 500 cycles even at a fast-charging rate of 3 C. This study indicates that the partial, intermediate SOC operation of the μ-Si anode can markedly increase the energy density and boost the fast-charging capability of a LIB cell, a challenging task in traditional cell engineering.
