To prevent the formation of dendritic lithium on the electrodes, nitrogen-doped amorphous carbon (a-CNx) films of nanosized thicknesses were deposited onto the surface of a metallic lithium foil by a magnetron sputtering technique. In this study, in situ visualization using confocal microscopy was adopted to monitor the formation of dendrite growth and a homogeneous nucleation theory was hypothesized for the first time. In addition, the voltage versus time test and the EIS analysis were used to characterize the stability of a-CNx coated Li electrodes. As a result, the nitrogen-doped amorphous carbon films can enhance the stability of the Li electrode and efficiently suppress the dendrite formation.

Journal of Materials Chemistry A

Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B & C cover high quality studies across all fields of materials chemistry. The journals focus on those theoretical or experimental studies that report new understanding, applications, properties and synthesis of materials. The journals have a strong history of publishing quality reports of interest to interdisciplinary communities and providing an efficient and rigorous service through peer review and publication. The journals are led by an international team of Editors-in-Chief and Associate Editors who are all active researchers in their fields. Journal of Materials Chemistry A, B & C are separated by the intended application of the material studied. Broadly, applications in energy and sustainability are of interest to Journal of Materials Chemistry A, applications in biology and medicine are of interest to Journal of Materials Chemistry B, and applications in optical, magnetic and electronic devices are of interest to Journal of Materials Chemistry C. More than one Journal of Materials Chemistry journal may be suitable for certain fields and researchers are encouraged to submit their paper to the journal that they feel best fits for their particular article. Example topic areas within the scope of Journal of Materials Chemistry A are listed below. This list is neither exhaustive nor exclusive.
