Thermal Management Implications Of Utility Scale Battery Energy Storage SystemsMohammad Aquib Zafar (16889376) 08 May 2024 (has links)
<p dir="ltr">The need for reducing reliance on fossil fuels to meet ever-increasing energy demands and minimizing global climate change due to greenhouse gas emissions has led to an increase in investments in Variable Energy Resources (VREs), such as wind and solar. But due to the unreliable nature of VREs, an energy storage system must be coupled with it which drives up the investment cost.</p><p dir="ltr">Lithium-ion batteries are compact, modular, and have high cyclic efficiency, making them an ideal choice for energy storage systems. However, they are susceptible to capacity loss over the years, limiting the total life of the batteries to 15-18 years only, after which they must be safely discarded or recycled. Hence, designing a Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) should consider all aspects, such as battery life, investment cost, energy efficiency, etc.</p><p dir="ltr">Most of the available studies on cost and lifetime of BESS either consider a steady degradation rate over years, or do not account for it at all, they take constant charge/discharge cycles, and sometimes do not consider ambient temperature too. This may result in an error in estimation of the cost of energy storage. The location where the BESS is supposed to be installed can also impact its life, given that each location has its own power consumption trend and temperature profile. In this work, we attempt to simulate a BESS by considering the ambient temperature, degradation rate and energy usage. This will help in getting an insight of a more realistic estimate of levelized cost of storage and for estimating the thermal energy needed to keep them within a certain temperature range, so that they can last longer.</p>

Porous Ge@C materials via twin polymerization of germanium(II) salicyl alcoholates for Li-ion batteriesKitschke, Philipp, Walter, Marc, Rüffer, Tobias, Seifert, Andreas, Speck, Florian, Seyller, Thomas, Spange, Stefan, Lang, Heinrich, Auer, Alexander A., Kovalenko, Maksym V., Mehring, Michael 08 February 2016 (has links) (PDF)
The germylenes, germanium(II) 2-(oxidomethyl)phenolate (1), germanium(II) 4-methyl-2-(oxidomethyl)phenolate (2) and germanium(II) 4-bromo-2-(oxidomethyl)phenolate (3) were synthesized and their thermally induced twin polymerization to give organic–inorganic hybrid materials was studied. The compounds 1–3 form oligomers including dimers, trimers and tetramers as a result of intermolecular coordination of the benzylic oxygen atom to germanium. The structural motifs were studied by single crystal X-ray diffraction analysis and DFT-D calculations. Thermally induced twin polymerization of these germylenes gave hybrid materials based on germanium-containing phenolic resins. Carbonization of these resins under reductive conditions resulted in porous materials that are composed of germanium and carbon (Ge@C materials), while oxidation with air provided non-porous germanium dioxide. The porous Ge@C materials were tested as potential anode materials for rechargeable Li-ion batteries. Reversible capacities of 540 mA h g−1 were obtained at a current density of 346 mA g−1 without apparent fading for 100 cycles, which demonstrates that germanium is well accessible in the hybrid material. / Dieser Beitrag ist aufgrund einer (DFG-geförderten) Allianz- bzw.

Nanocomposite cathodic materials for secondary cellsDi Carlo, Lidia 07 April 2017 (has links)
Hexagonales Wolframbronze (HTB)–FeF3·0.33H2O Xerogel und eine HTB– FeF3·0.33H2O/GO Nanoverbindung wurden zunächst durch einen fluorolytischen Sol-Gel Ansatz bei Raumtemperatur in MeOH erhalten und ihre elektrochemischen Eigenschaften bewertet. Operando Mössbauer Spektroskopie und Röntgendiffraktometrie (XRD) wurden verwendet, um den Mechanismus während der Reaktion mit Lithium zu untersuchen. Das Fluorid zeigte ein komplexes Verhalten und den strukturellen Zerfall der HTB Phase sowie eine allmähliche Umwandlung in Fe-F2–Rutil–ähnliche Nanodomänen, welche sich als Hauptkomponente im Verlaufe der Reaktion ausbildeten. Die XRD-Analyse bestätigte die Amorphisierung des elektroaktiven Materials. Die strukturelle Optimierung von HTB-FeF3·0.33H2O wurde durch eine mikrowellenunterstützte, fluorolytische Sol-Gel-Reaktion in Benzylalkohol erreicht. Das Verfahren ermöglichte die Synthese von phasenreinen Nanopartikeln mit einem Durchmesser von rund 30 nm, zusammen mit der Herstellung eines auf reduziertem Graphenoxid (RGO) basierten Nanokomposits bei verminderter Reaktionszeit. Die Abscheidung auf leitfähigem RGO erwies sich als vorteilhaft für die elektrochemische Leistung des Fluorids, das wiederholten Zyklen zu unterschiedlichen C–Raten standhalten konnte und seine volle Kapazität nach mehr als 50 Zyklen aufrecht erhielt im Gegensatz zum reinen HTBFeF3 ·0.33H2O. Für die Herstellung von aktiven Ionenspeichermaterialien zur Verminderung der Sichereitsrisiken (im Vergleich zur Verwendung von Metallanoden) sind Strukturen wie HTBFeF3 ·0.33H2O notwendig. Hierzu wurden Na–enthaltende Hexafluoroferrat-Nanokomposite hergestellt und mit RGO und teilweise oxidierten Ruß (ox–CB) als leitfähigen Kohlenstoff versetzt. Die Art des Kohlenstoffzusatzes beeinflusste die elektrochemische Leistung stark, wobei mit RGO die größten Verbesserungen erzielt werden konnten / Hexagonal tungsten bronze (HTB)-FeF3∙0.33H2O xerogel and HTB-FeF3∙0.33H2O/GO nanocomposite were firstly obtained by a room temperature fluorolytic sol-gel approach in MeOH, and their electrochemical properties evaluated. Operando Mössbauer spectroscopy and X-Ray diffraction were employed to investigate the reaction mechanism during reaction with lithium. The fluoride evidenced a complex behavior, with structural collapse of the HTB phase and gradual transformation into FeF2-rutile-like nanodomains, becoming the predominant component all along the reaction. XRD confirmed the amorphization of the electroactive material. Structural optimization of HTB-FeF3·0.33H2O was then achieved by a microwave-assisted fluorolytic sol-gel in benzyl alcohol. The procedure allowed the synthesis of phase pure nanoparticles of ~30 nm in diameter, along with the production of a reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-based nanocomposite and the reduction of reaction times. Deposition onto conductive RGO resulted beneficial for the electrochemical performance of the fluoride, which was able to sustain repeated cycling at different C-rates and recovered full capacity after more than 50 cycles with respect to the unsupported HTB-FeF3·0.33H2O. Aiming at the production of active ions-holding materials to solve safety issues related to the use of metallic anodes, necessary with structures such as HTB-FeF3·0.33H2O, Na-containing hexafluoroferrate nanocomposites were produced using RGO and partially oxidized carbon black (ox-CB) as conductive carbons. Carbon type greatly affected the electrochemical performance, whose best improvement was obtained using RGO as support

Etude des interfaces de batteries lithium-ion : application aux anodes de conversion / Interfaces for conversion anodes - reliability and efficiency studiesZhang, Wanjie 02 December 2014 (has links)
Les matériaux dits de conversion à base de Sb et Sn, utilisés comme électrodes, apparaissent comme des composés particulièrement intéressants compte tenu de leur forte capacité théorique. Le matériau TiSnSb a été récemment développé en tant qu’électrode négative pour batteries lithium-ion. Ce matériau est capable d’accueilir, de façon réversible, 6,5 Li par unité formulaire, ce qui correspond à une capacité spécifique de 580 mAh/g. Dans le domaine des batteries lithium-ion, les propriétés de l’interface électrode/électrolyte (« solid electrolyte interphase », SEI), formant une couche de passivation protectrice à la surface des électrodes sont considérées comme essentielles pour les performances au sens large des batteries. Cet aspect représente le sujet majeur traité dans ce travail de thèse. Dans cet optique, nous avons tout d'abord étudié les propriétés électrochimiques de l'électrode TiSnSb sous divers aspects, dont les effets du régime de cyclage, l’influence de la nature des additifs au sein de l’électrolyte ainsi que l’utilisation de liquides ioniques à température ambiante (RTILs). En particulier, un système d'électrolyte à base de RTILs a été développé et optimisé vis-à-vis des performances électrochimiques. Afin de caractériser l’interface électrode-électrolyte, deux techniques de caractérisation majeures ont été utilisées : la Spectroscopie Photoélectronique à Rayonnement X (XPS) et la Spectroscopie d'Impédance électrochimique (EIS). Cette étude a permis de cibler certains paramètres essentiels liant les aspects performances électrochimiques à la nature de l’interface électrode-électrolyte. / In the past decades, the need for portable power has accelerated due to the miniaturization of electronic appliances. It continues to drive research and development of advanced energy systems, especially for lithium ion battery systems. As a consequence, conversion materials for lithium-ion batteries, including Sb and Sn-based compounds, have attracted much intense attention for their high storage capacities. Among conversion materials, TiSnSb has been recently developed as a negative electrode for lithium-ion batteries. This material is able to reversibly take up 6.5 Li per formula unit which corresponds to a specific capacity of 580 mAh/g. In the field of lithium-ion battery research, the solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) as a protective passivation film formed at electrode surface owing to the reduction of the electrolyte components, has been considered as a determinant factor on the performances of lithium-ion battery. Thus it has been a focused topic of many researches. However, little information can be found about the formation and composition of the SEI layer formed on TiSnSb conversion electrode at this time. With the aim to investigate the influences of the SEI layer on the performances of composite TiSnSb electrode, we first studied the electrochemical properties of the electrode from various aspects, including the effects of cycling rates, electrolyte additives, as well as room temperature ionic liquids (RTILs). Especially, a RTILs-based electrolyte system was developed and optimized by evaluating its physicochemical properties to be able to further improve the performances of TiSnSb electrode. In order to characterize the SEI layer formed at electrode surface, we performed X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). This study allowed to target some essential parameters concerning electrochemical performances linked with the nature of the solid electrolyte interphase.*

Studies On Nanostructured Transition Metal Oxides For Lithium-ion Batteries And SupercapacitorisRagupathy, P 08 1900 (has links)
Rechargeable Li-ion batteries and supercapacitors are the most promising electrochemical energy storage devices in terms of energy density and power density, respectively. Recently, nanostructured materials have gained enormous interest in the field of energy technology as they have special properties compared to the bulk. Commercially available Li-ion batteries, which are the most advanced among the rechargeable batteries, utilize microcrystalline transition metal oxides as cathode materials which act as lithium insertion hosts. To explore better electrochemical performance the use of nanomaterials instead of conventional materials would be an excellent alternative.
High Li-ion insertion at high discharge rates causes slow Li+ transport which in turn results in concentration polarization of lithium ions within the electrode material, causing a drop in cell voltage. This eventually, leads in termination of the discharge process before realizing the maximum capacity of the electrode material being used. This problem can be addressed by decreasing the average particle size which leads to an increase in surface area of the electrode material. Nanostructured materials, because of their high surface area and large surface to volume ratio, to some extent can overcome the problem of slow diffusion of ions.
Supercapacitors are electrical energy storage devices which can deliver large energy in a short time. A supercapacitor can be used as an auxiliary energy device along with a primary source such as a battery or a fuel cell to achieve power enhancement in short pulse applications. Active materials for supercapacitors are classified into three categories: (i) carbonaceous materials, (ii) conducting polymers and (iii) metal oxides. Among the materials studied over the years, metal oxides have been considered as attractive electrode materials for supercapacitors due to the following merits: variable oxidation state, good chemical and electrochemical stability, ease of preparation and handling. The performance of supercapacitors can be enhanced by moving from bulk to nanostructured materials.
The theme of the thesis is to explore novel routes to synthesize nanostructured materials for Li-ion batteries and supercapacitors, and to investigate their physical and electrochemical characteristics.
Chapter I is an introduction of various types of electrochemical energy systems such as battery, fuel cell and supercapacitor. A brief review is made on electrode materials for Li-ion batteries and supercapacitors, and nanostructured materials.
Chapter II deals with the study of nanostrip orthorhombic V2O5 synthesized by a two-step procedure, with the formation of a vanadyl ethylene glycolate precursor and post-calcination treatment. The precursor and the final product are characterized for phase and composition by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), infrared (IR) spectroscopy, thermal analysis (TGA) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The morphological changes are investigated using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). It is found that the individual strips have the following dimensions, length: 1.3 μm, width: 332 nm and thickness: 45 nm. The electrochemical lithium intercalation and de-intercalation of nanostrip V2O5 is investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge cycling, galvanostatic intermittent titration technique (GITT) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy.
Chapter III describes the synthesis of nanoparticels of LiMn2O4 by microwave assisted hydrothermal method. The phase and purity of spinel LiMn2O4 are confirmed by powder XRD analysis. The morphological studies are carried out using FE-SEM and HRTEM. The electrochemical performance of spinel LiMn2O4 is studied by using CV and galvanostatic charge-discharge cycling. The initial discharge capacity is found to be about 89 mAh g-1 at a current density of 21 mA g-1 with reasonably good cyclability.
Chapter IV deals with synthesis of MoO2 nanoparticles through ethylene glycol medium and its electrochemical characterization. XRD data confirms the formation MoO2 on monoclinic phase, space group P21/c. Polygon shape of MoO2 is observed in HRTEM. MoO2 facilitates reversible insertion-extraction of Li+ ions between 0.25 to 3.0 V vs. Li/Li+. CV and galvanostatic charge-discharge cycling are conducted on this anode material to complement the electrochemical data.
Chapter V reports the synthesis of nanostructured MnO2 at ambient conditions by reduction of potassium permanganate with aniline. Physical characterization is carried out to identify the phase and morphology. The as prepared MnO2 is amorphous and it contains particles of 5 to 10 nm in diameter. On annealing at a temperature > 400 °C, the amorphous MnO2 attains crystalline α-phase with a concomitant change in morphology. A gradual conversion of nanoparticles to nanorods (length 500-750 nm and diameter 50-100 nm) is evident from SEM and TEM studies. High resolution TEM images suggest that nanoparticles and nanorods grow in different crystallographic planes. The electrochemical lithium intercalation and de-intercalation of nanorods was performed by (CV) and galvanostatic charge-discharge cycling. The initial discharge capacity of nanorod α-MnO2 is found to be about 197 mAh g-1 at a current density of 13.0 mA g-1. Capacitance behavior of amorphous MnO2 is studied by CV and galvanostatic charge-discharge cycling in a potential range from -0.2 to 1.0 V vs. SCE in 0.1 M sodium sulphate solution. The effect of annealing on specific capacitance is also investigated. Specific capacitance of about 250 F g-1 is obtained for as prepared MnO2 at a current density of 0.5 mA cm-2 (0.8 A g-1).
Chapter VI pertains to electrochemical supercapacitor studies on nanostructured MnO2 synthesized by polyol method. Although X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern of the as synthesized nano-MnO2 shows poor crystallinity, it is found that it is locally arranged in δ-MnO2 type layered structure composed of edge-shared network of MnO6 octahedra by Mn K-edge X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES) measurement. Annealed MnO2 shows high crystalline tunneled based α-MnO2 as confirmed by powder XRD pattern and XANES. As synthesized MnO2 exhibits good cyclability as an electrode material for supercapacitor.
In Chapter VII, capacitance behavior of nanostrip V2O5, TiO2 coated V2O5 and nanocomposites of PEDOT/V2O5 are presented. Structural and morphological studies are carried out by powder XRD, IR, TGA, SEM and TEM. Cyclic voltammogram of pristine V2O5 shows the regular rectangular shape indicating the ideal capacitance behavior in aqueous 0.1 M K2SO4. The SC value of pristine V2O5 is found to be about 100 F g-1. Nanostrip V2O5 is modified with TiO2 using titanium isobutoxide to enhance the capacitance retention upon cycling. Only 48 % of the initial capacitance remains in the case of pristine V2O5 after 100 cycles, while TiO2 coated V2O5 exhibits better cyclability with capacitance of 70 % of the initial capacitance. The capacitance retention is attributed to the presence of TiO2 on the surface of V2O5 which prevents the vanadium dissolution into the electrolyte. Microwave assisted hydrothermally synthesized PEDOT/V2O5 nanocomposites are utilized as capacitor materials. The initial SC of PEDOT/V2O5 (237 F g-1) is higher than that of either pristine V2O5 or PEDOT. The enhanced electrochemical performance is attributed to synergic effect and an enhanced bi-dimensionality.
Details of the above studies are described in the thesis with a conclusion at the end of each Chapter.

The electrochemical results and in operando XAS analyses performed during the 1st cycle of Li//Li1.20Mn0.54Co0.13Ni0.13O2 cells suggested the possible participation of oxygen anion to the redox processes. It was supported by the in-depth analysis of materials prepared by chemical Li deintercalation and reinsertion. The results of XRD, HAADF-STEM and nanodiffraction analyses, combined with electrochemical experiments performed in different conditions (rate, temperature …), revealed that different types of reactions occur in the particles during the 1st cycle. Within the bulk Ni, Co and O are involved in the redox processes, whereas Mn is not: oxygen ions are oxidized in charge and reduced during the next discharge reversibly. At the surface, the same oxidation processes occur during the first charge, but with the release of oxygen gaz and a densification of the lattice. During the next discharge and subsequent cycles, the redox reaction occurring near the surface after the 1st charge involves thus Co, Ni and Mn.

Nouveaux fluorophosphates de métaux de transition utilisés comme matériaux d'électrode positive pour batteries li-ion / New Transition Metal Fluorophosphates as Positive Electrode Materials for Li-ion BatteriesAteba Mba, Jean-Marcel 04 October 2013 (has links)
Nos efforts se sont portés sur des fluorophosphates de structure TAVORITE de formule LiMPO4F (M = V, Fe, Ti) et LiVPO4O qui, comparés à d’autres familles structurales de phosphates tels que Li3M2(PO4)3 (NASICON) ou LiFePO4(OH) (Tavorite) possèdent d’excellentes densités d’énergie théorique comme matériaux d’électrodes dans des accumulateurs au Li. Des méthodes de synthèse reproductibles, par voie céramique en tubes scellés et/ou ionothermale (synthèse à basse température), ont été mises au point dans ce travail. Les matériaux ainsi préparés ont été caractérisés en détail par magnétométrie, par RMN et surtout par diffraction des rayons X et des neutrons. Les structures cristallines ont ainsi pu être déterminées ainsi que les mécanismes d’insertion/extraction du Li+, via de nombreuses études par diffraction X insitu lors de la charge/décharge des accumulateurs. / This work focused on TAVORITE-based fluorophosphates LiMPO4F (M = V, Fe, Ti) and LiVPO4O which, when compared with other phosphate structural families such as Li3V2(PO4)3 (NASICON) or LiFePO4(OH) (Tavorite), possess superior energy density as electrode materials for Li batteries. Reproducible synthesis procedures were developed through “classical” ceramic routes in sealed containers and/or low temperature ionothermal reaction. The obtained materials were characterized by magnetometry, solid state NMR and heavily by X-Ray and Neutron diffraction. The crystal structures of all the materials were determined, as well as the mechanisms of Li+ insertion/extraction through insitu X-Ray diffraction during electrochemical charge/discharge of the batteries.

Système de mesure d'impédance électrique embarqué, application aux batteries Li-ion / Study of a battery monitoring system for electric vehicle, application for Li-ion batteriesNazer, Rouba Al 24 January 2014 (has links)
La mesure d'impédance électrique en embarqué sur véhicule est un sujet clé pour améliorer les fonctions de diagnostic d'un pack batterie. On cherche en particulier à fournir ainsi des mesures supplémentaires à celles du courant pack et des tensions cellules, afin d'enrichir les indicateurs de vieillissement dans un premier temps, et d'état de santé et de charge dans un second temps. Une méthode classique de laboratoire pour obtenir des mesures d'impédance d'une batterie est la spectroscopie d'impédance électrochimique (ou EIS). Elle consiste à envoyer un signal sinusoïdal en courant (ou tension) de fréquence variable balayant une gamme de fréquences d'intérêt et mesurer ensuite la réponse en tension (ou courant) pour chaque fréquence. Une technique d'identification active basée sur l'utilisation des signaux large bande à motifs carrés est proposée. En particulier, des simulations ont permis de comparer les performances d'identification de différents signaux d'excitation fréquemment utilisés dans le domaine de l'identification et de vérifier les conditions correspondant à un comportement linéaire et invariant dans le temps de l'élément électrochimique. L'évaluation de la qualité d'estimation est effectuée en utilisant une grandeur spécifique : la cohérence. Cette grandeur statistique permet de déterminer un intervalle de confiance sur le module et la phase de l'impédance estimée. Elle permet de sélectionner la gamme de fréquence où la batterie respecte les hypothèses imposées par la méthode d'identification large bande. Afin de valider les résultats, une électronique de test a été conçue. Les résultats expérimentaux permettent de mettre en valeur l'intérêt de cette approche par motifs carrés. Un circuit de référence est utilisé afin d'évaluer les performances en métrologie des méthodes. L'étude expérimentale est ensuite poursuivie sur une batterie Li-ion soumise à un courant de polarisation et à différents états de charge. Des essais comparatifs avec l'EIS sont réalisés. Le cahier de charge établi à l'aide d'un simulateur de batterie Li-ion a permis d'évaluer les performances de la technique large bande proposée et de structurer son utilité pour l'estimation des états de vieillissement et de charge. / Embedded electrical impedance measurement is a key issue to enhance battery monitoring and diagnostic in a vehicle. It provides additional measures to those of the pack's current and cell's voltage to enrich the aging's indicators in a first time, and the battery states in a second time. A classical method for battery impedance measurements is the electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). At each frequency, a sinusoidal signal current (or voltage) of a variable frequency sweeping a range of frequencies of interest is at the input of the battery and the output is the measured voltage response (or current). An active identification technique based on the use of wideband signals composed of square patterns is proposed. Particularly, simulations were used to compare the performance of different excitation signals commonly used for system identification in several domains and to verify the linear and time invariant behavior for the electrochemical element. The evaluation of the estimation performance is performed using a specific quantity: the spectral coherence. This statistical value is used to give a confidence interval for the module and the phase of the estimated impedance. It allows the selection of the frequency range where the battery respects the assumptions imposed by the non-parametric identification method. To experimentally validate the previous results, an electronic test bench was designed. Experimental results are used to evaluate the wideband frequency impedance identification. A reference circuit is first used to evaluate the performance of the used methodology. Experimentations are then done on a Li–ion battery. Comparative tests with EIS are realized. The specifications are established using a simulator of Li-ion battery. They are used to evaluate the performance of the proposed wide band identification method and fix its usefulness for the battery states estimation: the state of charge and the state of health.

Compréhension des mécanismes de (dé)lithiation et de dégradation d'électrodes de silicium pour accumulateur Li-ion et étude de facteurs influents / Understanding of (de)lithiation and degradation mechanisms of silicon electrodes used in Li-ion batteries and study of influent factorsRadvanyi, Etienne 06 February 2014 (has links)
Les travaux de thèse présentés dans ce manuscrit portent sur l’étude d’électrodes de silicium, matériau prometteur pour remplacer le graphite en tant que matériau actif d’électrode négative pour accumulateur Li-ion. Les mécanismes de (dé)lithiation du silicium sont d’abord étudiés, par Spectroscopie des Electrons Auger (AES). En utilisant cette technique de caractérisation de surface, qui permet d’analyser les particules individuellement dans leur environnement d’électrode, nos résultats montrent que la première lithiation du silicium s’effectue selon un mécanisme biphasé cr-Si / a-Li3,1Si tandis que les processus de (dé)lithiation suivants apparaissent complètement différents et sont du type solution solide. Ces mécanismes d’insertion / désinsertion du lithium conduisent à des variations volumiques importantes des particules de matériau actif lors du cyclage, à l’origine d’une détérioration rapide des performances électrochimiques. En combinant plusieurs techniques de caractérisation, les mécanismes de dégradation d’une électrode de silicium sont étudiés au cours du vieillissement. En utilisant en particulier la spectroscopie d’impédance électrochimique et des analyses par porosimétrie mercure, une véritable dynamique de la porosité de l’électrode est mise en évidence lors du cyclage. Un modèle de dégradation, mettant en cause principalement l’instabilité de la Solid Electrolyte Interphase (SEI) à la surface des particules de silicium, est proposé. Pour tenter de stabiliser cette couche de passivation et ainsi améliorer les performances électrochimiques des électrodes de silicium, l’influence de deux paramètres est étudiée : l’électrolyte et le « domaine de lithiation » du silicium, ce dernier paramètre étant associé à l’évolution de la composition du matériau actif lors du cyclage. A l’issue de ces travaux, des performances prometteuses sont obtenues pour des accumulateurs Li-ion comprenant une électrode de silicium. / The work presented here focuses on electrodes made of silicon, a promising material to replace graphite as an anode active material for Li-ion Batteries (LIBs). The first part of the manuscript is dedicated to the study of silicon (de)lithiation mechanisms by Auger Electron Spectroscopy (AES). By using this technique of surface characterization, which allows investigating individual particles in their electrode environment, our results show that the first silicon lithiation occurs through a two-phase region mechanism cr-Si / a-Li3,1Si, whereas the following (de)lithiation steps are solid solution type process. Upon (de)alloying with lithium, silicon particles undergo huge volume variations leading to a quick capacity fading. By combining several techniques of characterization, the failure mechanisms of a silicon electrode are studied during aging. In particular, by using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and mercury porosimetry analyses, an impressive dynamic upon cycling of the electrode porosity is shown. A model, which mainly attributes the capacity fading to the Solid Electrolyte Interphase instability at the silicon particles surface, is proposed. To try to stabilize this passivation layer and thus improve silicon electrodes electrochemical performances, the influence of two parameters is studied: the electrolyte and the “lithiation domain” of silicon; the latter is associated with the evolution of the active material composition upon cycling. Finally, by using these last results, promising performances are obtained for silicon electrode containing LIBs.
