摘要
Atomic layer deposition (ALD) was utilized to grow LiOH and Li2CO3 films using lithium tert-butoxide, H2O and CO2. Film growth was monitored with a quartz crystal microbalance at 225 degrees C. LiOH ALD had a growth rate of 12.7 ng.cm(-2).cycle(-1) before displaying evidence for hygroscopic behavior. Li2CO3 ALD had a growth rate of 17.1 ng.cm(-2).cycle(-1). The film identities were confirmed using Fourier transform infrared and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopies. Lithium-containing films are present in the solid-electrolyte interphase (SEI) on graphite anodes of Li-ion batteries. The ALD of an artificial SEI layer may limit lithium loss and improve the capacity stability during charge-discharge cycles.
