Abstract

A Si/Si-Co multilayer film, with Co confined doping in the silicon anode, was successfully fabricated by alternating magnetron sputtering, achieving both metal doping and surface coating. Operando magnetometry revealed the stability of the Si-Co layers during cycling. The symmetrical Si-Co layers can protect the overall structure of the Si anodes and facilitate electron conduction. Consequently, the resultant Si anode delivers an impressive initial coulombic efficiency of 93.4% with large capacity retention of 85.07% after 100 cycles.
