Research progress in nanotechnology for enhanced silicon-based and iron-based anodes for lithium-ion batteries

Recent research has focused on making suitable anode materials for lithium-ion batteries and using nanotechnology to refine composite electrode with high reversible capacity strong stability. However, much work remains be done develop these into commercially viable solutions. The must have capacity, a long lifetime, the ability accept release lithium ions repeatedly. Nano-engineered based silicon iron shown good promise but need improved electrochemical properties longer effective lifetimes. This paper summarizes performance characteristics of Si-based Fe-based anodes ways improve their through nanoengineering.
