Nanostructures and Nanomaterials for Batteries

Abstract

Lithium-ion batteries have shown great promise in portable electronics and electric vehicles due to their long lifespan and high safety. However, hurdles relating to the sluggish dynamics and poor cycling stability restrict the practical application. Nanostructured materials, due to their significantly decreased particles size, are thought to effectively address the above issues. In this section, we will concentrate on the recent progress in the development of advanced electrode materials including cathodes and anodes for lithium-ion batteries. Particularly, the utilization of nanostructured materials and techniques to decrease the particles size and elevate the diffusion coefficient of electrode materials, and thus shorten the diffusion distance for lithium ions and alleviate the large volume change of electrodes, ensuring enhanced rate capability and improved stability for lithium-ion batteries will be discussed in detail.
