Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of batteries, and particularly relates to a silicon-containing negative electrode structure. Background Art
[0002] The surface of the electrode material plays an important role in the electrochemical reaction process of the battery. The stability and reactivity of the surface and interface dominate the progress of the electrochemical reaction. Chemical and physical modification of the electrode material surface can effectively improve the interfacial reaction, conductivity, and structural integrity. Traditional spin coating or solution methods have problems such as a relatively thick thickness and poor coating uniformity, seriously affecting the performance and stability of the battery capacity. To overcome the above problems, atomic layer deposition technology can precisely control the thickness, composition, and morphology of the surface modification layer through its chemical adsorption and self-limiting properties.
[0003] With the increasing demand for high-energy-density lithium batteries, Si and its Si composite negative electrodes have attracted much attention due to their ultra-high theoretical capacity density. However, the Si negative electrode has a large volume change during charge and discharge. The oxide coatings prepared by traditional methods cannot meet such a large volume expansion, resulting in the destruction of the SEI layer and the continuous consumption of active Li in the electrolyte, ultimately causing a decrease in the Coulomb efficiency and shortening the cycle life of the battery.
[0004] To improve the mechanical strength and toughness of the surface modification layer of Si and its Si composite electrodes to cope with the volume change during cycling, although the nanoscale ALD oxide modification layer has certain flexibility, it is not sufficient to ensure the structural stability during long cycling.
[0005] In view of this, the present invention aims to provide a silicon-containing negative electrode structure. Through ingenious structural design and material selection, by constructing a three-layer artificial SEI layer on the surface of the silicon-containing negative electrode, it can ensure the bonding force between the modification layer and the substrate electrode and a continuous ion conduction path, prevent the collapse of the SEI structure caused by volume expansion during charge and discharge, improve the structural integrity of the modification layer, and thus improve the cycle stability and cycle life of the silicon-containing negative electrode. Summary of the Invention
[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a silicon-containing negative electrode structure in view of the deficiencies of the prior art. Through ingenious structural design and material selection, by constructing a three-layer artificial SEI layer on the surface of the silicon-containing negative electrode, it can ensure the bonding force between the modification layer and the substrate electrode and a continuous ion conduction path, prevent the collapse of the SEI structure caused by volume expansion during charge and discharge, improve the structural integrity of the modification layer, and thus improve the cycle stability and cycle life of the silicon-containing negative electrode.
[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0008] A silicon-containing anode structure includes a silicon-containing anode, a first artificial SEI layer deposited on the surface of the silicon-containing anode by ALD, a second artificial SEI layer deposited on the surface of the first artificial SEI layer by MLD, and a third artificial SEI layer deposited on the surface of the second artificial SEI layer by ALD. The setting of the three artificial SEI layers has the following advantages: the first artificial SEI layer can improve the bonding force between the coating layer and the substrate, and at the same time construct a continuous ion-conducting network; the second artificial SEI layer relies on its excellent fracture toughness to ensure the structural stability and integrity of the overall coating layer during the cyclic process of the Si anode with severe volume expansion, and at the same time constructs a continuous electron-conducting network through its own carbon-containing segments; due to the poor water vapor stability of the organic-inorganic composite, the third artificial SEI layer can effectively block the erosion of water vapor in the air and HF in the electrolyte, playing the role of an anti-corrosion layer and further stabilizing the stability of the overall SEI layer. The functions of each layer are different and the order cannot be changed; the advantage of the selection of each layer process is that it can accurately control the thickness and composition of the film layer to achieve precise regulation of electrochemical and mechanical properties.
[0009] As an improvement of the silicon-containing anode structure of the present invention, the thickness of the first artificial SEI layer is 1-5 nm, the thickness of the second artificial SEI layer is 1-20 nm, and the thickness of the third artificial SEI layer is 1-5 nm. The selection of the above thicknesses has the following advantages: the thicknesses of the first layer and the third layer cannot be too thick, because too thick a thickness is likely to increase the internal resistance of the battery, hinder the transmission speed of electrons and ions, and reduce the reaction kinetics performance of the battery. The second artificial SEI layer cannot be too thick, because too thick a thickness is likely to cause the consumption of active lithium in the electrode, resulting in capacity loss, and too thin a thickness is likely to cause damage to the SEI layer due to insufficient mechanical properties.

[0053] Table 1: Types of precursors corresponding to various metals
[0054]
[0055]
[0056] In the present invention, the silicon-containing organic compound is a precursor for depositing a silicon-containing solid electrolyte (such as Li2SiO3) or an oxide.
[0057] In the present invention, the composition of the silicon-containing negative electrode is that the active material is at least one of pure silicon, nano-silicon, or a composite material of silicon such as a silicon-carbon composite material (silicon-graphite, silicon-carbon nanotube, silicon-graphene), and silicon oxide; the conductive agent is at least one of SuperP, carbon nanotube, graphene and carbon black; the binder is at least one of PVDF, CMC and SBR.

[0059] Specifically, the first-layer ALD oxide or solid electrolyte layer, as an ion-conducting layer, can construct a continuous ion transport framework from the electrode to the artificial SEI layer, and by constructing covalent bonds, enhance the binding force between the modified layer and the electrode. Due to the higher crosslinking degree between the metal precursor and the polymer segments, the middle porous organic-inorganic composite layer has better fracture toughness than a single inorganic layer, and can effectively adapt to the volume expansion of the electrode during charge and discharge while maintaining the integrity of the modified layer. At the same time, a continuous electron-conducting network is constructed through its own carbon-containing segments, enhancing the electron conduction ability of the SEI layer and improving the reaction kinetics of the battery. The outermost ALD oxide anti-corrosion layer can effectively block the erosion of water vapor and, as a sacrificial layer, further adsorb the corrosion of HF that may exist in the electrolyte, thus playing a role in protecting the electrode and the artificial SEI film. Therefore, the design of the three-layer structure can ensure the binding force between the modified layer and the substrate electrode, a continuous ion-electron conduction path, prevent the collapse of the SEI structure caused by volume expansion during charge and discharge, improve the structural integrity of the modified layer, and thus enhance the cycle stability and cycle life of the Si negative electrode.
