First-principle study of interphase Ni3Sn in Sn-Ni alloy for anode of lithium ion battery
The mechanism of Li insertion into interphase Ni3Sn in Ni-Sn alloy for the anode of lithium ion battery is investigated by means of the first-principle plane-wave pseudopotential. Compared with other phases, it is found that the Ni3Sn has larger relative expansion ratio and lower electrochemical potential, with its specific plateaus voltage around 0.3eV when lithium atoms are filled in all octahedral interstitial sites, and the relative expansion ratio increasing dramatically when the lithiated phase transits from octahedral interstitial sites to tetrahedral interstitial sites. So this phase is a devastating phase for whole alloy electrode materials.
