Title: All-solid-state thin-film rechargeable lithium batteries using solid redox polymerization electrodes

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7247698

Lithium batteries using solid redox polymerization electrodes maintain the advantages of all-solid-state thin-film systems while overcoming the limitations of using intercalation compounds as cathodes (i.e., insufficient rate capability and unsatisfactory cathode utilization). Laboratory Li/PEO/SRPE cells have already demonstrated much higher power capability, energy density, and cathode utilization than analogous Li/PEO/TiS{sub 2} cells. One of the Li/PEO/SRPE cells has achieved 350 cycles from 50{degree}C to 93{degree}C with a sustained energy density of 264 Wh/kg (241 Wh/1), power density of 160 W/kg (144 W/1), and 38% to 75% of cathode utilization at 90% voltage efficiency. At 100{degree}C, power densities of over 2400 W/kg and energy density of 200 W/kg have been achieved with up to 96% utilization of cathode capacity. At ambient temperatures, the cells can be discharged at a current density of 250 {mu}A/cm{sup 2}, achieving a film capacity of 0.5 coulombs/cm{sup 2}. 7 refs., 5 figs.
