Computer Test of a Modified Silicene/Graphite Anode for Lithium-Ion Batteries.


ABSTRACT: Despite the considerable efforts made to use silicon anodes and composites based on them in lithium-ion batteries, it is still not possible to overcome the difficulties associated with low conductivity, a decrease in the bulk energy density, and side reactions. In the present work, a new design of an electrochemical cell, whose anode is made in the form of silicene on a graphite substrate, is presented. The whole system was subjected to transmutation neutron doping. The molecular dynamics method was used to study the intercalation and deintercalation of lithium in a phosphorus-doped silicene channel. The maximum uniform filling of the channel with lithium is achieved at 3% and 6% P-doping of silicene. The high mobility of Li atoms in the channel creates the prerequisites for the fast charging of the battery. The method of statistical geometry revealed the irregular nature of the packing of lithium atoms in the channel. Stresses in the channel walls arising during its maximum filling with lithium are significantly inferior to the tensile strength even in the presence of polyvacancies in doped silicene. The proposed design of the electrochemical cell is safe to operate.
