Lithium, whose silvery-white colour tarnishes on oxidation when exposed to air, is the most electropositive metal (−3.04 V versus a standard hydrogen electode), the lightest (M = 6.94 g mol −1 ...
After the initial silicon-lithium alloy layer is formed, subsequent layers are pure lithium. Micrometre-scale silicon particles at the anode constrain the lithiation process (i.e. during charging ...
