Abstract
Solid-state lithium-ion batteries (SSLIBs) offer significant advantages over traditional liquid-electrolyte-based batteries, including improved safety, higher energy density, and better thermal stability. Among various anode materials, silicon (Si)-based anodes have attracted significant attention due to their ultrahigh theoretical capacity (∼4200 mAh/g) and abundant resources. However, widespread adoption of Si-based anodes in SSLIBs is still restricted by some critical challenges such as severe volume expansion, low electronic and ionic conductivity, high interfacial impedance, and low initial Coulombic efficiency (ICE). This review mainly focuses on the design strategies of Si-based anode for SSLIBs at the material, electrode and cell levels including nanostructuring, Si alloys, Si-carbon composites, conductive additives, advanced binder, external pressure, electrolyte infiltration, and prelithiation. The insights provided here aim to inspire future research and accelerate commercialization of high-performance Si-based anodes in next-generation SSLIBs.
