Outline of Final Research Achievements |
It was intended to reveal a behavior in the anode materials of lithium ion secondary battery under the charge-discharge state to design ideal electrode structures. The charge-discharge process are derived from an intercalation-deintercalation of Li ions into graphite layers for the graphite anode and alloying-dealloying reaction between Li ions and the metal for the alloy anode expected to provide a higher performance. In this study examined a method of preparing thin-layer graphite electrodes and metal/carbon composite electrodes, and then the metal/carbon composites in charged state were observed in nm-order level by high-resolution transmission electron microscope. The graphite could be controlled to several ten layers, but requires further thinning. For the alloy anode, the optimal electrode production method was established and it was suggested that the metal particle with the size of a few nm is a key point for designing high performance electrodes.
