Description
Summary:Summary: Phase-field simulation is a powerful tool for understanding lithium metal electrodeposition. This protocol outlines the process of numerically solving the phase-field equations using the MOOSE framework. Here, we describe steps to obtain the spatiotemporal distribution of major physical characteristics such as phase-field, ion concentration, overpotential, and driving force. Such an approach may help to reveal the underlying physics and kinetics of dendrite growth, while also providing design principles for suppressing lithium dendrites.For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Hong and Viswanathan (2018). : Publisher’s note: Undertaking any experimental protocol requires adherence to local institutional guidelines for laboratory safety and ethics.
