Here, we evaluate the beneficial impact of pre-lithiated Si/C electrodes for their application in NCM111j jSi/C cells by comparing two approaches, i.e., electrochemical pre-lithiation and pre-lithiation by direct contact to Li metal foil.
Silicon (Si) is one of the most promising candidates for application as high-capacity negative electrode (anode) material in lithium ion batteries (LIBs) due to its high specific capacity. However, evoked by huge volume changes upon (de)lithiation, several issues lead to a rather poor electrochemical perform-ance of Si-based LIB cells.
Using a lithium metal negative electrode has the promise of both higher specific energy density cells and an environmentally more benign chemistry. One example is that the copper current collector, needed for a LIB, ought to be possible to eliminate, reducing the amount of inactive cell material.

During the initial lithiation of the negative electrode, as Li ions are incorporated into the active material, the potential of the negative electrode decreases below 1 V (vs. Li/Li +) toward the reference electrode (Li metal), approaching 0 V in the later stages of the process.
The interaction of the organic electrolyte with the active material results in the formation of an SEI layer on the negative electrode surface . The composition and structure of the SEI layer on Si electrodes evolve into a more complex form with repeated cycling owing to inherent structural instability.
