AI Technical Summary
Existing lithium-ion batteries with silicon-based anode active materials and electrolyte solutions containing LiFSI and DMeTFSA do not adequately improve cycle characteristics due to cracking of the solid electrolyte interface (SEI) caused by the expansion and contraction of the silicon-based anode active material during charging and discharging.
A lithium-ion battery design with a specific molar ratio of lithium bis(fluorosulfonyl)imide (LiFSI) to N,N-dimethyltrifluoromethanesulfonamide (DMeTFSA) in the electrolyte solution, ranging from 1/16 to 1/4, which forms a less prone to cracking SEI, thereby improving cycle characteristics.
The specified molar ratio of LiFSI to DMeTFSA in the electrolyte solution enhances the battery's cycle characteristics by maintaining the integrity of the SEI, leading to improved discharge capacity retention and average current efficiency.
