Abstract:

A simulation study performed in the scope of the project RealLi! is presented. One of the project’s main goals is to improve NMC811 and graphite electrode cycling capacities at high C-rates. The rapid charging and discharging capability of batteries is improved using laser ablation to introduce structures into the surface of the electrode composite layers. Due to improved transport kinetics, this not only improves the electrochemical properties in the high-current range, but also homogenizes and accelerates the electrolyte wetting during production as a side effect. This is particularly advantageous in thick-film electrodes for providing high energy densities. This study supports the laser structuring process of battery electrodes [1][2] via a virtual optimisation, based on electro-chemical battery models. The electrodes are structured by ultrafast laser ablation, with parallel channels being introduced along the electrode surface. This modification enables an easier electrolyte penetration, a reduced charge transfer resistance, and shortened lithium-ion transport pathways which finally leads to a reduced diffusion overpotential at high C-rates. ... mehr
