Abstract

To quantify the Li diffusion behavior in nanocrystalline anode materials for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), a hybrid model of the first principles calculation and diffusion kinetics was developed. The dependence of the Li diffusion on the electronic structure, solute concentration, grain size and temperature was described for the nanocrystalline Li–Si system. In contrast to conventional polycrystalline materials in which the activation barrier for Li diffusion decreases with the increase of concentration before amorphization, there exists a coordination effect of the solute concentration and grain size on the Li diffusion in nanocrystalline materials. A maximum diffusion coefficient can be obtained in the nanocrystalline Li–Si by a combination of the concentration and grain size, which is increased by two orders of magnitude from that in the coarse-grained counterpart. The present work advanced the understanding of the Li diffusion mechanisms during lithiation/delithiation of LIBs and may facilitate the development of nanocrystalline anode materials.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
