Abstract
SiO x coating is an effective strategy to prolong the cycling stability of Si-based anodes due to the robust interaction between Si and the SiO x layer. However, the SiO x layer-protected Si anode is limited by the relatively low initial Coulombic efficiency and sluggish Li+ diffusion ability induced by the SiO x layer. Herein, we present the preparation of selectively prelithiated Si@SiO x (Si@Li2SiO3) anode by using a facile strategy to resolve the above issues. As the anode for lithium ion batteries, Si@Li2SiO3 exhibits a high initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE) of 89.1%, an excellent rate performance (959 mA h g-1 at 30 A g-1), and a superior capacity retention (3215 mA h g-1). The full cell with LiFePO4 cathode and Si@Li2SiO3 anodes is successfully assembled, disclosing a high ICE of 91.1% and excellent long cycling stability. The superior electrochemical performance of Si@Li2SiO3 can be attributed to the coating layer, which can strengthen the integrity of the electrode, decrease irreversible reactions, and provide efficient Li+ diffusion channels.
