Extreme Fast Charging with a Silicon-Dominant Anode a Holistic Approach

Yaron Ideses, PhD, Director, Chemistry R&D, StoreDot Ltd.

The presentation will describe the unique holistic development approach that was employed in order to exceed the goal of 300Wh/Kg and 1000 consecutive extreme fast charging cycles while maintaining the battery's health, in different form factor pouch cells, from 1Ah to 30Ah. While Si-rich anodes present a pathway to fast charging, they are prone to fast deterioration and low cycle life. StoreDot Extreme Fast Charging (XFC), high energy Si-dominant cell technology is enabled by integrating all aspects of Li ion-based cell components (anode, cathode, electrolyte, cell design, and data science).

Phase Transformation and Microstructural Evolution of CuS Electrodes in Solid-State Batteries Probed by in situ 3D X-Ray Tomography

Philipp Adelhelm, PhD, Professor, Institute of Chemistry, Humboldt University, Berlin

Copper sulfide (CuS) is a naturally occurring mineral and has been used as cathode active material (CAM) in Li primary batteries in the past. The ideal discharge reaction (2 Li + CuS -> Li2S + Cu) theoretically provides 560 mAh/g(CuS) and 961 Wh/kg. Here, we discuss why CuS could be an attractive CAM for rechargeable Li-SSBs. Next to a high intrinsic mixed conductivity and ductility, CuS reacts with Li via a unique conversion reaction mechanism that leads to macroscopic phase changes during cycling. Next to cycling studies, the storage mechanism and mechanical properties are discussed using 3D tomography. 10.1002/aenm.202002394, 10.1002/aenm.202203143.
