Dynamics Simulations of Ion Intercalation in Lithium Batteries

MOLECULAR DYNAMICS SIMULATIONS OF ION INTERCALATION IN LITHIUM BATTERIES 

The charging process in lithium-ion batteries is marked by the intercalation of lithium ions into the graphite anode material. Here we present MD simulations of this process and suggest a new charging method that has the potential for shorter charging times, as well as the possibility of providing higher power densities.
