Electrochemical Charge Transfer Reaction Kinetics at the Silicon-Liquid Electrolyte Interface

Since the gravimetric lithiation capacity of silicon is roughly ten times that of graphite, while their mass densities are comparable, for the same particle size the current density required to cycle a silicon electrode at a given C-rate is about ten times greater than that of graphite. Depending on...
