ABSTRACT
Because it has been demonstrated to be effective toward faster ion diffusion inside the pore space, low-tortuosity porous architecture has become the focus in thick electrode designs, and other possibilities are rarely investigated. To advance current understanding in the structure-affected electrochemistry and to broaden horizons for thick electrode designs, we present a gradient electrode design, where porous channels are vertically aligned with smaller openings on one end and larger openings on the other. With its 3D morphology carefully visualized by Raman mapping, the electrochemical properties between opposite orientations of the gradient electrodes are compared, and faster energy storage kinetics is found in larger openings and more concentrated active material near the separator. As further verified by simulation, this study on gradient electrode design deepens the knowledge of structure-related electrochemistry and brings perspectives in high-energy battery electrode designs.
