Insights into the SiO2 Stress Effect on the Electrochemical Performance of Si anode

@void@NC composite. Various post-cycling electrode analyses also address the positive effects of inner stress from the Si core on effectively relieving the damage to electrode structure, facilitating the formation of a more stable inorganic-rich solid electrolyte interphase (SEI) layer. This study provides new insights for mechanical stability and excellent electrochemical performance of Si-based anode materials.
