Porous silicon (PSi) research has been active for several decades. The multiple properties
and structural features of PSi have made it a promising material for a wide variety of …

In this work, four selected ionic liquids (ILs), in combination with lithium bis (fluorosulfonyl)
imide salt (LiFSI) were explored as electrolytes for anodes made from micron-sized …

The ionic liquid (IL)‐based electrolyte comprising 1.2 M lithium bis (fluorosulfonyl) imide
(LiFSI) in N‐propyl‐N‐methylpyrrolidinium bis (fluorosulfonyl) imide (PYR13FSI)(ILE) has …

Silicon is the most promising anode material for next-generation lithium-ion batteries (LIBs)
due to its high theoretical specific capacity and safe electrochemical potential. Among the …

Silicon substrates with pn junction were layer-by-layer etched along the depth of the n-layer
by the method of electrochemical anodization on the surface; the obtained porous silicon …

We investigated the impact of electrolyte difference on lithiation and delithiation properties of
a Li1. 00Si electrode to improve the Coulombic efficiency (CE) of Si-based electrodes. The …

This PhD thesis is for me not only a scientific achievement, but also a personal one. The last
4 years, which sometimes felt never-ending and other times flew by far too quickly, I have …

Silicon (Si) has become one of the most promising candidates for next-generation anode for
Lithium ion batteries (LIBs). However, the pristine nano Si is limited in practical use due to …
