Researchers at Rice University and Lockheed Martin in the United States said recently that they have discovered a technology to improve the performance of lithium-ion batteries through monocrystalline silicon. This technology can be used in the research and development of electric vehicle batteries, which helps to produce new batteries with higher energy, longer life, and more cycles of charge/change cycles.
The technology, chaired by Sibani Lisa Biswal, assistant professor at the Rice University's School of Chemistry and Biomolecular Engineering, was published earlier this month on the Chemistry of Materials edited by the American Chemical Society. Replacing graphite in traditional batteries with monocrystalline silicon is a key step in this technology.
Compared with ordinary batteries, the new-type lithium-ion battery produced by using this technology has a larger capacity. Another experiment shows that the capacity of single-crystal silicon to absorb lithium is 10 times that of graphite. This means that if the technology enters the commercial production stage, the performance and life of the batteries carried by electric vehicles will be greatly improved.
It is reported that this new battery technology research and development work has been supported by the Lockheed Martin Advanced Nanotechnology Center of Excellence. Lockheed Martin is a US aerospace manufacturer and is currently the largest defense industry contractor in global sales.
