Understanding of the Electrochemical Behavior of Lithium at Bilayer-Patched Epitaxial Graphene/4H-SiC.

ABSTRACT: Novel two-dimensional materials (2DMs) with balanced electrical conductivity and lithium (Li) storage capacity are desirable for next-generation rechargeable batteries as they may serve as high-performance anodes, improving output battery characteristics. Gaining an advanced understanding of the electrochemical behavior of lithium at the electrode surface and the changes in interior structure of 2DM-based electrodes caused by lithiation is a key component in the long-term process of the implementation of new electrodes into to a realistic device. Here, we showcase the advantages of bilayer-patched epitaxial graphene on 4H-SiC (0001) as a possible anode material in lithium-ion batteries. The presence of bilayer graphene patches is beneficial for the overall lithiation process because it res
