- the present invention includes a template assisted technique to fabricate nanoarchitectured conformal electrode/electrolyte assembly that is and can be useful in Li-ion micro/nanobattery systems.
- Thin conformal layer of PMMA deposited around Ni-Sn nanowire electrode provide the separator functionality to the assembly and serve as the gel electrolyte when soaked with liquid electrolyte.
- the conformal configuration of the present invention has showed excellent electrochemical performance with two orders of magnitude improvement in the reversible discharge capacities, compared to its planar counterpart. High rate capability over extended cycling resulting from the nanoarchitectured conformal electrode-electrolyte assembly has also been demonstrated.
- the PMMA coating has been observed to stay intact around the Ni- Sn nanowires over extended cycling at high current rates and has shown to improve the cycling characteristics of the bare nanowires.

- PMMA Polymethylmethacralate
- nanostructured electrode Ni-Sn intermetallic nanowire
- a hard template assisted polymer infiltration technique such as drop coating.
- the nanostructured conformal configuration of the gel electrolyte has led to improved rate capabilities and discharge capacities of the electrode per footprint area (footprint area: overall device area) compared to its planar (stacked layers as used in bulk technologies) counterpart.
- Such a fabrication process is advantageous because it is relatively inexpensive, as compared to other fabrication techniques and also is readily adaptable in large scale production.
- Such fabrication process is also capable of uniformly coating over a relatively large length of a nanowire.
- Embodiments of the present invention have been produced for coated Ni- Sn nanowires uniformly coated over a length of around 12 ⁇ m.
- the core-shell anode-electrolyte array was fabricated using alumina templates. The two layers were grown using a combination of electrodeposition and solution wetting techniques. A variety of anode materials were fabricated by electrodeposition in alumina templates followed by a pore widening step. The space around individual anode nanowires was filled by polymer layer using a solution wetting technique. Vertically aligned arrays of core- shell anode-electrolyte nanowires were obtained and characterized by electron microscopy techniques. The three-dimensional nanostructured assembly for the anode and electrolyte was electrochemically characterized by cyclic voltammetry and charge discharge analysis in vacuum tight Swagelok cells. Full cells were constructed using known cathode materials (LiCoO 2 , V2O5) and electrochemically characterized against the novel 3D anode-separator nanocomposites.
- the invention can include the following steps:
- Ni-Sn nanowires are electrodeposited into the pores of a WHATMAN alumina template.
- a dilute solution of NaOH is used to partially widen the pores of the alumina template from (A).
- a solution of polymethylmethacralate in acetonitrile is prepared in an argon filled glove box.
- the solution from (C) is spin coated onto the alumina template from (B) to obtain a thin polymer layer around the anode.
- the polymer layer is soaked in a 1 M LiPF 6 in 1 : 1 solution of ethylene carbonate and dimethyl carbonate.
- the full and half cell were assembled against L1C0O2 and Lithium foil respectively in an Argon filled glove box.
- Electrochemical performance of the cells from (F) were studied using cyclic voltammetry and galvanostatic charge discharge analysis.
- polymer layers of thickness between around 20 to 100 nm were well suited.
- the thickness of the polymer layer achieved may be limited by the interpore distances of the commercial WHATMAN alumina templates used for this embodiment. Thicker polymer layers can be achieved using lab-grown alumina templates with larger interpore distances which in turn allows for larger widening of pores.
- various anode materials can be engineered to build the novel three-dimensional core shell nanowires.
- Cathode materials with different rate of lithium ion diffusion can also be used to construct full cells against the anode-polymer electrolyte core-shell assembly.
- Ni-Sn intermetallic nanowires Owing to its high specific capacity, low cost and easy fabrication, Ni-Sn intermetallic nanowires have been chosen as the exemplar electrode material for embodiments of the present invention.
- Other intermetallic nanowires can be utilized as the electrode material in other embodiments of the present invention.

- the copper foil was cleaned thoroughly with DI water before electrodeposition.
- planar Ni-Sn bulk film was grown on the copper foil to obtain films of same thickness.
- FIG. 3A is a schematic showing the fabrication of the novel nanostructured conformal configuration of the electrode/separator assembly.
- a gold-back coated template 302 can be utilized. Nanowires are electrodeposited into pores of the template 302 as shown in assembly 303. The nanowires can function as individual nanostructured electrodes. The pores are then widened, as shown in assembly 304. A polymer is then infiltrated, such as by drop coating a polymer solution onto the assembly 304 to obtain a polymer layer around the nanowires and yielding a nanostructured conformal hybrid assembly 305.
- Thickness of PMMA layer can be controlled by tuning the alumina pore- widening step.
- an entire nanowire was visualized at 24 continuous segments by TEM to confirm the conformal nature of the coating along the length of the nanowire.
- High magnification images at two different segments of the nanowire shows the Ni-Sn PMMA interface.
- FIG. 5A a schematic showing the fabrication of the novel nanostructured conformal configuration of the electrode/separator assembly similar to that shown in FIG. 3, except that it further illustrates performing the polymer infiltration step directly assembly 303 (i.e., not including the pore widening step).
- sequential filling of PMMA in the Ni-Sn nanowire grown template results in the fabrication of ID assembly, while spin-coating of PMMA layer onto the pore widened alumina template results in 3D conformal configuration.
- FIG. 5B is a TEM image of the 3D configuration (i.e., the "conformal configuration") showing the conformal PMMA layer (—25 nm) around the Ni-Sn nanowire. Similar to as shown in FIG 3B, the high resolution image (inset 502) of FIG. 5B shows a good interface between the thin PMMA layer around the Ni-Sn nanowire. A schematic of a single 3D Ni-Sn/PMMA nanowire assembly 503 is also shown. Again, the thickness of PMMA layer can be controlled by tuning the alumina pore-widening step. FIG.
- FIG. 5C is a TEM image of the ID configuration (i.e., "multisegmented configuration") showing the planar heterojunction between the Ni-Sn and PMMA segments.
- a schematic of a single multisegmented Ni-Sn/PMMA nanowire FIG. 5C is a TEM image of the 1 D configuration showing the planar heterojunction between the Ni-Sn and PMMA segments. Schematic of a single multisegmented Ni-Sn/PMMA nanowire 504 is also shown.
- Ni-Sn/PMMA electrode-electrolyte assemblies with planar (i.e., 2D) and conformal (i.e., 3D) nanostructured configurations were tested for their electrochemical performance in Li half cells by Galvanostatic charge/discharge cycling between 1.5 V and 0.02 V versus Li/Li + , with Ni-Sn as the working electrode.
- Conformal PMMA layer soaked in liquid electrolyte solution formed the gel electrolyte and separator.
- nanowires of height 10 ⁇ were electrodeposited in the AAO templates and for the planar configuration a film of same thickness was electrodeposited on a copper foil.
- the planar and conformal Ni-Sn/PMMA nanostructures were fabricated as follows: After the growth of the Ni-Sn (electrode) nanowires and bulk film, the PMMA based polymer electrolyte/separator was coated onto the electrode. A 2 wt% solution of PMMA in acetonitrile was prepared inside an Argon filled glove box. The PMMA electrolyte was coated onto the Ni-Sn nanowires to obtain two different electrode-electrolyte designs. A thin film of PMMA was coated onto the planar Ni-Sn bulk film by spin coating to obtain the 2D electrode-electrolyte architecture.
- the Ni-Sn grown AAO template was typically first treated with 0.1 M NaOH for 40 minutes to widen the pores of the template. After the pore widening process the PMMA was drop coated onto the alumina template. After the coating process the template surface was wiped off the excess liquid using a clean tissue paper and dried in vacuum at 25°C for lh. A thin film of PMMA was allowed on top of the template to ensure electrical insulation between the two electrodes.
- the structure of the conformal configuration was analyzed by Transmission electron microscopy (FEI Quanta 400 ESEM FEG, JEOL 21 OOF). The template was dissolved completely in 3M NaOH to release individual nanowires prior to the electron microscopy characterization.
- the electrochemical performance of the Ni-Sn/PMMA core-shell nanowires was tested by galvanostatic charge/discharge measurements.
- an electrochemical test cell was assembled in a Swagelok-type cell inside an Argon-filled glovebox using the Ni-Sn PMMA (planar and conformal configurations) electrode/separator unit as the working and lithium metal foil as the counter/reference electrode.
- the cathode was made of LiCoO 2 (SIGMA ALDRICH), carbon black and PVDF binder in the weight ratio of 85: 10: 5.
- the slurry was prepared by mixing the above mixture of LiCoO 2 , carbon black and PVDF in Dimethylformamide thoroughly, followed by casting onto an Aluminium foil (Alfa Aesar, thickness of 0.1 mm).
- the coated cathode was dried in a vacuum oven at 120°C for 24 hours.
- the conformal nanostructured Ni-Sn/PMMA array was used as anode/separator unit against the L1C0O 2 cathode.
- the PMMA film was soaked in 1 M solution of LiPFi in 1 :1 (v/v) mixture of ethylene carbonate (EC) and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) for 1 hour prior to assembly of each of the electrochemical cells.
- FIGS. 6A-6B The potential versus capacity curves for the two electrode-electrolyte configurations (shown in FIGS. 6A-6B) at a current rate of 0.12 mA/cm 2 show typical Li insertion/extraction behavior of tin based intermetallic anodes.
- Inset 601 in FIG. 6A is a schematic of the planar configuration with the arrows indicating direction of Li ion transport. Li ion transport in these configurations has been schematically illustrated in the respective plots.
- Inset 602 in FIG. 6B is a schematic of the core-shell morphology of individual nanowires in the conformal configuration with the radial direction of Li ion transport.)
- FIG. 6C is a graph comparing the cycling behavior of the planar configuration (curve 603) and conformal configuration (curve 604).
- the thin film based planar configuration showed a reversible capacity of ⁇ 0.002 mAh cm 2 respectively after 10 cycles of charge/discharge, whereas the conformal configuration was able to retain a reversible capacity of ⁇ 0.26 mAh/cm 2 even after 30 cycles of charge/discharge.
- the novel conformal nanostructured electrode-electrolyte configuration showed an improvement in the reversible capacity by two orders of magnitude. Moving to the third dimension with a conformal nanowire based configuration has resulted in geometrical area gain and an associated electrode volume gain. This leads to shorter transport path for Li ion diffusion between the electrodes.
- Ni-Sn/PMMA gel electrolyte
- electrode length of ⁇ 10 urn were galvanostatically cycled in a Li half cell at different current rates of 0.12 mA/cm 2 (0.5C) and 0.3 mA/cm 2 (3C) (curves 701 and 702 in FIG. 7A, respectively)
- C-rate is defined as the rate at which the nominal capacity of the electrode material is achieved: 1C— 1 hour to discharge the nominal capacity of the cell.
- a planar electrode-electrolyte assembly with same electrode height (thickness) is also tested for comparison (curves 703 and 704 in FIG. 7A, respectively).
- Pore density in commercial Alumina template taken to be ⁇ 1E9 pores/cm 2
- Thickness (Height of nanowire) 10 ⁇
- Diameter of nanowire 200 nm
- FIG. 11 A is a TEM image of a PMMA coated Ni-Sn nanowire before cycling (electron diffraction shown in the inset 1101).
- FIG. 11B is a TEM image after 15 cycles of charge/discharge (electron diffraction shown in the inset 1102).
- FIGS. 11C-11D are, respectively, TEM images of low and high magnification images after 60 cycles of charge/discharge. Pin hole free PMMA layers intact around individual Ni-Sn nanowires even after extended cycling.
- FIG. 12 is a graph comparing such cycling characteristics of the PMMA coated Ni-Sn nanowires with home-made Ni-Sn powder with conductive additive and binder cycled at 0.5C rate between 1.5 and 0.02 V. Reversible capacity of ⁇ 200 mAh/g and ⁇ 102mAh/g were observed for the PMMA coated Ni-Sn nanowires and the Ni-Sn powder respectively.
- Ni-Sn powder was synthesized by electrodepositing (current density 6mA cm 2 ) Ni-Sn nanowires in commercial ANODISC alumina templates and completely dissolving the alumina template in 3M NaOH. The Ni-Sn powder obtained was cleaned several times using deionized water). The results indicated that the PMMA coated Ni-Sn nanowires show an improvement in capacity retained at current rate ⁇ 0.5C.
- the improved rate capability of the conformal electrode/electrolyte configuration could be due to the direct contact of the nanowires to the current collector substrate and the thinner PMMA separator layer which is lacking in the conventionally (randomly oriented with conductive additive and binder on stainless steel substrate with thick glass microfiber separator) prepared Ni-Sn nanowire electrodes.
- FIG. 13A is a schematic of full Li-ion cell 1301 constructed using the conformal Ni-Sn/PMMA (anode/electrolyte) assembly 1302 with LiCoO 2 cathode 1303. A thin layer of excess PMMA 1304, coated on top of the assembly serves as the separator.
- FIG. 13B shows charge-discharge profiles for Ni-Sn/PMMA gel/ LiCoO 2 configuration (Ni-Sn nanowire length ⁇ 10 um) cycled at a rate of 0.05 mA/cm 2 between 2.7 V and 3.95 V using PMMA separator soaked in liquid electrolyte of 1M solution of LiPF 6 in 1 :1 (v/v) mixture of ethylene carbonate (EC) and dimethyl carbonate (DMC). Cycling characteristics of full cell showing a reversible discharge capacity of around 0.15 mAh/cm 2 over 10 cycles of charge/discharge is shown in the inset 1305. An optimized cell assembly with a balanced electrode choice would result in improved cycling performances.

Abstract
La présente invention concerne un procédé de fabrication pour un revêtement enrobant d'une couche d'électrolyte polymère mince sur des matériaux électrodes nanostructurés pour des applications tridimensionnelles de micro/nanobatterie, des compositions associées, et des dispositifs qui incorporent lesdites compositions. Dans des modes de réalisation, des revêtements enrobants (tels qu'une épaisseur uniforme d'environ 20 à 30 nanomètres) de couches d'électrolyte de polymère de polyméthacrylate de méthyle (PMMA) autour de nanofils individuels de Ni-Sn ont été utilisés en tant qu'anodes pour une batterie au Li-ion. Cette configuration présentait une capacité de décharge élevée et une excellente rétention de capacité même à des taux élevés durant un cyclage prolongé, permettant une augmentation graduée de capacité de surface avec l'épaisseur d'électrode. Il a été démontré que de telles architectures conformes d'anode-électrolyte à nanoéchelle sont un système efficace de batterie au Li-ion.
