  • Lithium Metal Anodes and Rechargeable Lithium Metal Batteries

    by Ji-Guang Zhang, Wu Xu, Wesley A. Henderson ...
    Series series Energy (R0)
    This book provides comprehensive coverage of Lithium (Li) metal anodes for rechargeable batteries. Li is an ideal anode material for rechargeable batteries due to its extremely high theoretical specific capacity (3860 mAh g-1), low density (0.59 g cm-3), and the lowest negative electrochemical potential (−3.040 V vs. standard hydrogenelectrodes). Unfortunately, uncontrollable dendritic Li growth ... Read more
