Approaching the theoretical capacity of TiO2 anode in a photo-rechargeable lithium-ion battery

New generation of lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)integrating solar energy conversion and storage is emerging,as they could solve the fluctuation problem in the utilization of solar energy.Photo-rechargeable lithium-ion batteries(PR-LIBs)are ideal devices for such target,in which solar energy is converted into electricity and stored in LIB.In order to achieve the high performance of PR-LIB,it is crucial to develop dual-function electrode materials that can synergistically capture solar energy and store lithium.Herein,we present photo-rechargeable lithium-ion batteries using defective black TiO2 as photoanode prepared by lithium reduction.The photoanode exhibits excellent photo response in full solar spectrum with a capacity enhancement of 46.4%under illumination,corresponding to the energy conversion efficiency of 4.4%at the current density of 1 A·g-1.When illumination is applied at 20 mA·g-1,the battery capacity increases from~230 in dark to~349 mAh·g-1 at the first cycle,and then stabilizes at 310 mAh·g-1,approaching the theoretical value of 335 mAh·g-1 of TiO2 electrode material.This finding provides thoughts for breaking the capacity limitations in TiO2 and paves the way for powering LIBs by solar illumination.
