Multiscale Researches on Lithium Ion and Lithium Metal Batteries

Abstract

Research and development of Lithium Ion Battery (LIB) have been extensively performed based on material science and cell technology. In order to accelerate the development of LIB, a multi-scale researches have to be conducted under one roof. Here, several researches from nm scale to m scale on LIB were introduced to discuss an importance of multi-scale research. Then, the new platform for LIB development was proposed based on our several researches. (1) Interfacial analysis between cathode and electrolyte in LIB by using in-situ Fourier Transform Infrared method, (2) Preparation of LiFePO4 (LFP) with carbon coating, (3) Interfacial analysis on lithium metal anode for solid electrolyte interphase (SEI), (4) Preparation of 3 dimensionally ordered macroporous separator and its application to lithium metal battery, (5) Single particle measurement for evaluation of composite electrodes, (6) Failure mode analysis of LFP/Graphite cell.
