Germanium in Lithium-Ion and Sodium-Ion Batteries (A Review)
Т. Л. Кулова, А. М. Скундин
Abstract
Abstract In recent decade, special interest is paid to germanium as potential material of negative electrodes in lithium-ion and, the more so, sodium-ion batteries. In the review, studies of lithium and sodium reversible insertion to different germanium–metal nanostructures as well as germanium-alloy-, germanium–compound-, and germanium–composite-based electrodes are overviewed. The review is mainly based on papers published after 2013.
