Abstract
In the future, the pursuit of enhanced battery capacity, rapid charging capabilities, and extended cycle life will be of paramount significance, especially within the continuously expanding energy market. Lithium-Iodine batteries, owing to their inherent stability, high rate capability, and cost-effectiveness, possess the potential to emerge as a pioneering Next-Generation commercial technology. However, realizing this potential requires overcoming certain critical challenges. In this research, we delve into potential optimizations for Lithium-Iodine batteries by separately targeting improvements in the cathode and electrolyte components. It is highly likely that the ultimate solution lies in a synergistic combination of these two enhancements. Designing an efficient cathode is a multifaceted endeavor due to the intricate structure and the high solubility of active materials.
Our proposed cathode design successfully integrates all active materials, enabling the utilization of two distinct oxidation states of Iodine, thereby surpassing current technology in high-rate performance
