Abstract

Irreversible processes accompanying the lithium incorporation into amorphous thin-film silicon are investigated. It is shown that the irreversible processes occurred during the cathodic polarization result in the formation of passive film at the silicon surface. The passive film at silicon is close, in its composition, to the passive film at carbonaceous materials. However, unlike the carbonaceous electrodes, no effect of electrolyte composition on the irreversible capacity of the silicon electrodes is observed.
