Lithium (Li) metal is widely recognized as a highly promising negative electrode material for next-generation high-energy-density rechargeable batteries due to its exceptional specific capacity (3860 mAh g −1), low electrochemical potential (−3.04 V vs. standard hydrogen electrode), and low density (0.534 g cm −3).
There are three main groups of negative electrode materials for Li-ion batteries. The materials known as insertion materials are Li-ion batteries' “historic” electrode materials. Carbon and titanates are the best known and most widely used.
This type of cell typically uses either Li–Si or Li–Al alloys in the negative electrode. The first use of lithium alloys as negative electrodes in commercial batteries to operate at ambient temperatures was the employment of Wood’s metal alloys in lithium-conducting button type cells by Matsushita in Japan.
Lithium (Li) metal shows promise as a negative electrode for high-energy-density batteries, but challenges like dendritic Li deposits and low Coulombic efficiency hinder its widespread large-scale adoption.
This unstable growth is a major problem with the rechargeability of elementary negative electrodes in a number of electrochemical systems, and constitutes an important limitation upon the development of rechargeable lithium batteries using elemental lithium as the negative electrode reactant.
As discussed below, this leads to significant problems. Negative electrodes currently employed on the negative side of lithium cells involving a solid solution of lithium in one of the forms of carbon. Lithium cells that operate at temperatures above the melting point of lithium must necessarily use alloys instead of elemental lithium.
