This study demonstrates the applicability of small-molecule Langmuir-Blodgett films in electrode interface engineering for the development of lithium-ion batteries. The thin molecular films generated through the Langmuir-Blodgett technique were found to effectively regulate the electrochemical behavior of silicon electrodes in different electrolyte solutions.
Silicon-based anodes are widely expected to vastly improve the perform-ance of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, the silicon anode interface is well-known to be unstable and reactive, leading to various electrolyte side reactions that would ultimately lower the battery performance. Consequently, it is critically important to rationally design the silicon anode to stabilize its interface. The Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) technique is a well-established, versatile, and powerful method for fabricating ultrathin films over solid substrates. Here, we utilize LB approach to generate thin films composed of small organic molecules over silicon electrodes as protective layers. Such molecular layers were found capable of mediating the electrochemical behavior of silicon electrodes in both aqueous and organic carbonate electrolytes. This study illustrates the applicability of small-molecule LB films in electrode interface engineering for LIB technology development.
