Outline of Final Research Achievements |
As an anode of Li-ion battery, Si has a problem of a poor cyclability due to its large volume changes during charge-discharge and a resulting stress. We prepared composite thick-film electrodes consisting of rare-earth metal silicides and elemental Si by a gas-deposition method, and investigated their anode performances. Among various rare-earth silicides/Si electrodes, Gd-Si/Si electrode exhibited the most excellent cycling performance. We revealed that the excellent performance was caused by four properties of Gd-Si: a moderate Li-storage ability, a high electronic conductivity, a high thermodynamic stability, and a more elastic property than other silicides. This elastic property probably relaxes the stress during charge-discharge.
