The working electrode of the half cell was a 15-mm] section of the positive or the negative electrode, and the counter electrode was a 16-mm] section of Li metal. 100% SOC of the half cells was de・］ed as the fully charged state of the positive or the negative electrode.
Electrode half-cells.— The term half-cells used in this work describes electrochemical cells consisting of active electrode materials (graphite in case of the NE and NMC in case of the PE) as working electrodes and lithium foil as counter electrodes, fabricated in coin cell format.
The active mass of each electrode was measured by cutting a 15 mm disk of the current collector material (copper for the NE and aluminium for the PE) and removing the active material from both sides of the sample, as described for the half-cell electrodes above.
In the full cell case, the reference electrodes are SC532 and AG. The voltage vs Li/Li + of each electrode at a full cell voltage of 4.3 V is read directly from Fig. 1 b and labeled. The electrode voltages when the full cell voltage equals 3.0 V (not labeled) are 3.4 V for SC532 and 0.4 V for AG vs Li/Li +.
The capacity fades of positive and negative electrodes are attributed to deactivation of active materials due to a decrease in the conducting paths of electrons and Li+. The decrease in electronic conducting paths is in turn ascribed to cracks in positive and negative active materials, detachment of conducting and active materials, etc.
The derivation of these coupling equations is provided in Notes S1 and S2. A Si-based half-cell consists of a Si active electrode as the cathode and a Li-metal anode, with a separator between the two electrodes. The electrolyte fills the space inside the coin cell casing.
Coin cell assembly of the electrode half-cells.
