Summary: Alloying elemental foil, such as Sn, Al, In, etc., as anodes in high-energy-density Li-ion batteries shows great promise due to their attractive capacities, low cost, and easy processability. However, poor electrochemical performance is caused by abundant Li loss, uneven electrochemical reactions, and continuous side reactions. In this study, a conformal heterogeneous Li-alloy interface alloying elemental foil (Sn/Li-LA) was constructed, which could suppress side reactions and homogenize electrochemical reactions. The cycle life and efficiency of batteries were significantly improved.

Summary: Silicon is a promising material for next-generation lithium-ion battery anodes due to its high theoretical capacity and low cost. However, its poor cyclability and rate performance limit its large-scale applications. In this study, hollow silicon/germanium nanospheres combined with porous carbon are synthesized and used as lithium-ion battery anodes. The experimental results show that these anodes have small volume expansion, high ion/electron conductivity, and stable electrode interface, while theoretical calculations suggest that using germanium instead of silicon can improve lithium storage ability. These unique characteristics enable the anodes to exhibit high initial specific capacity, superior rate capability, excellent cycling stability, and outstanding stability even at high loading. Moreover, when paired with LiFePO4 cathode, the full-cell shows impressive capacity performance.
