The lattice distance between silicon atoms multiplies as it accommodates lithium ions (lithiation), reaching 320% of the original volume. The expansion causes large anisotropic stresses to occur within the electrode material, fracturing and crumbling the silicon material and detachment from the current collector. Prototypical lithium-silicon batteries lose most of their capacity in as few as 10 charge-discharge cycles. A solution to the capacity and stability issues posed by the significa…
