제목 | Atomic Layer Deposited Zinc Oxysulfide Thin Film as an Anode Material in Li-ion Battery |
초록 | In the recent time, the sustainable and eco-friendly rechargeable energy sources are in high demand to obtain the global environmental pollution free energy storage. Therefore, the choice of Li-ion batteries is not only the power source of the portable electronic gadgets but also for the next-generation electric vehicles. This factor eventually leads to the investigation of new electrode materials to maximize the energy/power density per unit mass as well as per unit area or volume of the active materials. Therefore, the 3D-porous conducting scaffolds coated with active electrode materials or the free-standing electrode materials are the need for the hour. In this regard, zinc (Zn) based materials always have a great importance in any field of energy applications due to its earth abundance, low cost, eco-friendly nature with an easy synthesis process by a variety of deposition techniques. On the other hand, atomic layer deposition (ALD) technique is a great tool for the conformal deposition of a thin film with a precise thickness and desired stoichiometry on any randomly oriented 2D/3D substrates. In this study, zinc oxysulfide (ZnO1-xSx) thin films on stainless steel (SS) current collector were deposited by ALD which were directly used as an anode material in Li-ion battery without any carbon and binder. The electrochemical performance of the anode material was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) measurements against Li in a half cell configuration which showed prominent redox-peaks during both cathodic and anodic process. A stable discharge capacity of above 500 mAh g‒1 was obtained at 100th cycle during the charge-discharge cycling performance of this electrode at a high current density of 1 A g‒1 which was significantly higher than the pristine ZnO and ZnS. Thus, this work can be presented as a typical approach to study the electrochemical responses of a double-anion compound active material which can be easily obtained with a desired stoichiometry with high precision by ALD. |
