Asymmetric battery having a semi-solid cathode and high energy density anode

Patent Tan, Taison ; Chiang, Yet-Ming ; Ota, Naoki ; Wilder, Throop ; Duduta, Mihai

Embodiments described herein relate generally to devices, systems and methods of producing high energy density batteries having a semi-solid cathode that is thicker than the anode. An electrochemical cell can include a positive electrode current collector, a negative electrode current collector and an ion-permeable membrane disposed between the positive electrode current collector and the negative electrode current collector. The ion-permeable membrane is spaced a first distance from the positive electrode current collector and at least partially defines a positive electroactive zone. The ion-permeable membrane is spaced a second distance from the negative electrode current collector and at least partially definesmore »« less
